Intermediate to Advanced Watercolor with Christopher Wynn
Dates: 8 weeks April 29 - June 24 (no class May 27) Time: 6pm. - 8:30pm
Fee: $225 Maximum of 15 students
Christopher Wynn will demonstrate many of the techniques he uses to paint his watercolors of contemporary realism. He typically “mixes and rolls” the paint directly on the paper to achieve soft, organic gradients of color, transitions virtually impossible in any other medium. There is always an element of “hit-or-miss” with these techniques, which often bring surprising results.
He will also demonstrate how he mixes a tricolor black for greater depth in watercolor, effective mixing and using various warm and cool grays, charging techniques to bounce and enhance light in your work, and why he likes to use resist, or masking fluid, when painting. Lastly he will discuss materials he prefers, and why, and plans to offer a great deal of individual attention.
