BASIC techniques from 9 a.m to 4;30 p.m.
This workshop is specially designed for those who have never touched watercolour or very little. I beleive that before creativity becomes spontaneous, you have to experiment with the techniques of the medium; the level of pigments in the water, stabilize the wet paper to prevent buckling, know the steps for applying the frisquet to preserve whites so you can freely apply colour on a wt paper. We will go from a feild of lilies, to a snow scene with birch trees, to the roundness of fruits and a negative background and make softened edges. In short, we will touch to all the important techniques of watercolour but in simple subject and scenes to be able to concentrate on understanding the techniques at this level.
