WATERCOLOUR WORKSHOP
”Boat and stormy waters”
by Kasia Wiercinska (Norway)
WHEN: 2.06.2024
Sunday 10.00 - 15.00
DESCRIPTION: A perfect combination of a loose style that highlights unique watercolour effects, and precision with a decent dose of realism. We'll first focus on painting waves on super-wet paper (get ready to let it go - water will be dropping on the floor and will give you many unexpected effects - we will grasp all the randomness and practice being okay with all 'accidents' :)). After the loose beginning, we will focus on painting a boat. Now, in a more realistic way - with shadows, the colour of wood, and the shininess of metal elements. Sounds intimidating? Don't worry, I will break it down into a few easy-to-follow steps and provide help at every stage :)

MATERIALS: All materials are included.
