LORRAINE WATRY WATERCOLOR WORKSHOP- WATERLILLY
This workshop will focus on painting a waterlily. Learn to paint the beautiful glowing petals of the lily and its reflection in the water. Create a soft focus background on the lily pads with a wet-on-wet technique to highlight the fuzzy bee.
During this workshop: Students will explore how strong values and vibrant color will make the Lily glow. We will use layering, wet-on-wet, masking and other techniques to create a realistic likeness of the waterlily and bee with some blurring in the background.
An Instruction Packet and Materials List will be emailed to registrants in the registration confirmation email.
