 Watercolour Seasons – Virtual Course – Intermediate Level

This is an advanced watercolor course designed to develop a greater skillset for
watercolour properties, textures, and qualities. The intention of this course is to explore a
wide variety of colors from cold and warm to pastel and bright. By using these, we will
discover the four seasons as an overall theme and we will improve our mixing skills.

Each class will focus on a specific season along with containing a specific palette and elements.
We will also work on backgrounds, seasonal objects, and locations using multiple
techniques, shapes, and styles. Finally, we will use a variety of images that will give us
the possibility to create multiple color mixes and shapes.

Course Dates: March 16, March 23, March 30, April 6

Time: 6:30pm – 8pm
