In this class we’ll experiment with this easy and quick technique that creates some of the loveliest watercolor textures I’ve seen… if you love the intricate patterns found in a single rock, for example, you will love this class. Using only t-shirt transfer paper and watercolors, we’ll spend a relaxed morning playing with brush techniques, working in layers and experimenting with fabric. (Watercolor on fabric? Yes!!)
In the afternoon we will add other media to the mix: charcoal, ballpoint pen, crayon, and pastel to add even more texture and depth to these unique paintings. Finally, we'll experiment with laying down two or three "plates" on top of each other to create paintings that have the "accidents" of printmaking, and the look of watercolor and the feel of an encaustic painting, all rolled into one!
Supplies provided by Instructor includes Fabric, Irons (one per four people), Pastels, charcoal, etc., anything else needed
Supply List:- Several watercolor brushes - brushes that you have on hand, medium to large, round or flat (I will have many to share, so please don’t feel you must go out and purchase a bunch of new brushes!)
