This workshop will demystify how to paint water and water reflections by helping us remove our mind from the equation. This will allow us to paint what we truly see, rather than what we think we see! At the same time, we’ll work on adding our own voice to our work. We’ll step through a series of exercise designed to loosen up, mix paints with confidence and put down fresh strokes to create gorgeous water scenes. We will explore all the blues in your paint box and maybe a few more you don’t have yet. We’ll also learn to mix all those other colors in water reflections, and play with hard vs. soft edges. Note: some rocks and trees may be included.
