Watercolor Wonder: Creating Vibrant and Expressive Color, Texture and Spirit! Instructor: Lisa Lubarr This is a class about the joy, passion, and wonder of watercolors! There are many different creative and FUN techniques that lend themselves to landscape painting as well as to figurative art, still lives, botanicals and abstracts. Allowing paint to interact and move with water and other elements provides fascinating textures and spontaneous effects. Each week will be an exploration of a few exciting methods where the spirit of experimentation and freedom are encouraged along with ways that these intriguing techniques can be incorporated into specific designs. We will work with salt, wax paper, clingwrap, ink, granulation medium, sea sponges and lifting sponges, creatively-shaped brushes, tools for splattering and scraping, masking fluid, artist’s tape, rice and oatmeal, rubbing alcohol, soap and many other household items! Helpful techniques for creating vivid skies, foliage, and water will be demonstrated. Additionally, we will experiment with watercolor pencils and crayons, pearlescent and iridescent and metallic paints, watercolor mediums of many varieties, gouache, and pastel in the final pass! The flow of water and paint has endless possibilities and brings the magic and beauty of the unknown and the inner creative giant to an exuberant new life, in this shared exploration of the Waterworld and the spirit and wonder inherent in this unique medium. For continuing students: a chance to experiment and explore additional techniques, with guidance on your individual projects! For new students: no prior painting experience needed – come and enjoy the vibrancy of color during New England fall season! *Registered students will be contacted before the beginning of the class with a small list of materials that need to be purchased.
