Beginning Watercolor

For all who think that watercolor is one of the most difficult mediums, this course is designed to take away that fear. In this 10-week program students will learn how to control this luminous art form and create a finished work suitable for matting and framing.  Material list will be provided at registration.

Intermediate Watercolor
This course is designed to take beginning watercolorists further in their understanding of the medium’s unique character. Emphasis will be placed on composition, value, color temperature, atmospheric and linear perspective, glazing, and color mixing. Demonstrations and critiques will be integrated into each session. Individualized instruction as well as a creative and supportive environment will provide each student with the opportunity to explore their own unique style while building on their experience level.

Advanced Watercolor

This course is designed for those who have taken both Beginning and Intermediate Watercolor and are looking for a creative, supportive environment to encourage them to continue to grow as an artist. Critiques are an integral part of each class.

Drawing On The Right Side Of The Brain

Both the experienced and novice artist will be amazed at the improvement in their drawing skills as a result of this course. Designed as a series of exercises which enable the student to see with an artist’s eye and learn the “tricks” an artist uses to make drawings easier and more accurate, this 10 week course requires only a pencil, a sketchbook and a curious mind. The purchase of the book Drawing On The Right Side Of The Brain by Betty Edwards is strongly recommended but not required.
