Student Level: All
Type of Workshop: Project/Process
Prerequisite: None

Pens and watercolor are a very useful combo for journaling on location and just about anywhere! We'll work with an assortment of water soluble and waterproof pens to create textures, values and compositions in journals. This will be the foundation for color transparencies. Learn how to paint watercolor layers and fused colors with intensity. This is your chance to play with shape making and combine images in an artful way on paper. Paint freely while dropping in color onto the wet paper surface. And no worries if you've never painted or drawn before! - I'll go over the basics and there will be images available to work from or bring some images of your own.
