Watercolor Dory on the Pamet

When we create a painting, we must think about “shapes” not “things”. Using a limited palette, the class will create this painting of a Dory on calm waters. All objects in the painting are shapes, not real things. We “symbolize” what we want the person viewing our paintings to see. Whether it’s a building, grasses, rocks, reflections, trees or other objects, each has a shape and texture at the perimeter edge. It’s important to master these edges. Combined with these concepts is Value, Color and Variety. In the morning, Paul will introduce the subject and what to consider before painting. The drawing is prepared for the afternoon. After lunch Paul demonstrates his damp paper technique for controlling watercolor and extending working time Instructor: Paul Allen Taylor $140 MDCA members $170 MDCA non-members
