WATERCOLOR WORKSHOP by SUE ARCHER NWS AWS TWSA

“My goal as an instructor is to present you with as much design and color theory information as time allows, and encourage you to take advantage of the inherent wet into wet qualities of watercolor. The objective is not to change you, but to add to your core of knowledge. Then it is up to you to take this knowledge and apply it to the style and subject matter that suits you.”

COURSE DESCRIPTION : 4- 5 days
WATERCOLOR: BEYOND THE BASICS: level: adv. beginners thru advanced

A course designed to inspire your creativity by using wet into wet techniques, color theory and design concepts.

In this workshop you will experience how I create and design my imagery and achieve the quality of light. You will be introduced to many topics and concepts and your goal should be to decide how these ideas could apply to your painting, your subject matter, intent and style.
