WATERCOLOR AND WHAT IT MEANS TO ME.
I FIND THAT WATER COLOR IS VERY RELAXING TO ME AND I LOVE THE SOFTCOLORS YOU CAN MAKE, AS WELL AS MORE VIVID COLORS.
SOME INDIVIDUALS FEEL THAT WATER COLOR IS DIFFICULT, WELL ALL MEDIUMS
ARE DIFFICULT UNTIL YOU LEARN THE TECNIQUES.
THE SECRET TO WATER COLOR IS CONTROLLING THE WATER IN YOUR BRUSH.
IN THE CLASS I TEACH, I CAN'T SAY THAT ENOUGH.
THE SECOND THING YOU MUST LEARN IS THE ART OF MIXING COLORS.
YOU BEGIN MY TAKING YOUR PAINTS AND MAKING A COLOR CHART, WHICH IS
VERY HELPFUL IN FINDING COLORS FOR A PAINTING YOU MAY BE WORKING ON.
TAKING CLASSES FROM DIFFERENT INSTRUCTORS CAN BE VERY REWARDING.
AS EACH INSTRUCTOR APPROACHES THE MEDIUM DIFFERENTLY. YOU WILL LEARN
OVER TIME WHICH APPROACH YOU LIKE THE BEST. I FEEL THERE IS NO RIGHT OR
WRONG, JUST CORRECT TECHNIQUES, WHICH YOU APPLY IN YOUR OWN WAY.
Love what you had to say. You say it the way it should be said and taught. Babs
