Course Information
Beginning Water Color
Price: $104.00
Summary
This watercolor course is designed to help the beginning and intermediate student understand the principles of mixing colors, as well as learn watercolor techniques. Students will complete several paintings during the 6-week course by applying what they have learned. Often the block holding artists back is frustration when trying to mix desired colors. We will examine the whys and why-nots of color mixing.
