WATERCOLOR AND INK LEVEL 2

WATERCOLOR + INK, LEVEL 2: ART FOR YOUR WALLS
INSTRUCTOR: ELISA HUGGINS

In Level 1 you learned watercolor techniques and color theory, created unique and unusual marks, discovered new tools, and experimented with various inks. Now what? In this course, besides exploring additional experimental tools and colors, we will bring your creations to the finish line by using traditional frames or wood panels, so you can hang them on your walls.

This time around, we will use larger paper and work on a series of experimental and intuitive expressions. We will discuss the merits of tonal value and the principles of composition. And like in Level 1, we look forward to lots of wonderful happenstance and exciting discoveries.

MATERIALS
All materials are provided with a $35 supplies fee, payable to your instructor on the first day of class.



MEET YOUR INSTRUCTOR

I majored in arts and architecture a few decades ago, but needing to satisfy my curiosity in other fields of the arts, I returned to school and studied digital media and graphic design. I am forever an art student -- learning and improving on my skills.

I get an absolute thrill from the journey that produces a work of art, be it drawing, painting, paper crafting, pottery, digital illustrations, or photography. I love the benefits I get from exploring different media and processes in art-making, and then teaching others what I’ve learned. For me, art-making is good for brain health, emotional wellbeing, physical dexterity, and overall wellness.
