“SUNLIT FOREST II”

Because we managed to get “Sunlit Forest” to a place where participants could finish it, the above painting is using a similar method. Like all paintings, it is about edges (it is always about edges)

Method: A series of glazes, enhanced light for a dramatic affect and a wonderful lesson in negative shapes.

Brushes: 1” flat, #10 round or any suitable brush of your choice.

Colors: Naples Yellow, Permanent Rose, Ultramarine Blue, Burnt Sienna and Raw Sienna.

(The brand I use is DVP, DiVinci Brand Artist’s quality but any brand will do).

Paper: Quarter sheet of 140lb of any good quality watercolor paper – my personal favorite is TH Saunders – either 200lb or 140lb.

You will also need: Water Container, rags (cotton towels are excellent), sketch paper for exercises and note taking and a hairdryer.

Class is limited to 15 For more information and if you have any questions call 823-1905 or email ja864@yahoo.com

Cost: $25 (no tax)
