About Us
Although the portrait portion of our exhibition shows people from a bygone era we should remember that when those paintings were made, people dressed in the contemporary fashion of their time. The portraits created during this project will use watercolor as the medium but also incorporate some more timely materials in a fun combination. (Note: photos of each student will be taken on the first day of class, for the sole purpose of use in this project) |

Resistance
Resists are one of the many techniques that make watercolor a flexible and fun medium for all artists. We will explore some familiar and maybe unfamiliar ways to use this technique in their original artwork. |
|
|
Perspective
We see atmospheric perspective in the current exhibit’s landscapes. This project aims to add to the students’ understanding about how to portray that optical illusion in paint. |
|
|
It’s a Splash
We will use all the things we learned in the previous lessons to create scenes of trees and water reflections that head more toward realism. |

|
Animal Portraits
The earlier lessons in our series helped the students gain experience in techniques and concepts we will put to use creating these ‘portraits’. Each animal will be portrayed by using elements of its natural habitat to create the coloring seen through a matt shaped like an animal’s silhouette. |

|
Collaborative Project
Sharing art is always fun. In this session-long project the artists will use several watercolor techniques to create unique leaves. Some they will keep but others they will trade with their class members like artists’ trading cards. By the end of our session we will finish up by making them into a keepsake sampler for each person to take home. |
