The paths, woods, bluffs, berries, wildflowers, rocks and buildings of this special place provide some of Bridget s favorite subjects. During the class, she will do daily demonstrations, using fresh brushwork, flowing color and the sparkle of the watercolor paper. Lessons will stress simplifying and uniting the composition, mixing and using personal color, developing rich darks, and creating negative shapes for variety and contrast. She will work with you individually to help you develop your style, subjects and interests, and bring life and excitement to your paintings. Most of this will take place in the comfort of the Schoolhouse, but, weather permitting, some demonstrations and sketching sessions may be held outside at The Clearing.
All students are welcome, but some experience with watercolor is helpful.
A list of suggested supplies will be sent prior to class, but feel free to bring your favorite paints, brushes and papers.
