Beginners welcome!
Do you feel like venturing into the wonderful world of abstract watercolor paintings? In this class designed for beginners you will be introduced into making a simple abstract painting that uses the wet-on-technique. Vibrant, colourful paints will be dropped on the wet paper and let the pigments travel creating soft edges with transitioning colours.
This is a simple painting but involves brainstorming and planning out your work before putting paint to paper. The instructor will guide you as you learn the principles that make this method fun, accessible, and inspiring, and apply it to your own creations.
The instructor will be giving you little tips and tricks along the way that are particular to watercolour so that you can create your own planned or freeform process abstract paintings in the future.
