Lesson Plan for Tuesday December 8th, 2009

 

Topic: Fun Day – Christmas Medley. 

 

Taking at least one quarter sheet of watercolor paper and cutting it into four pieces, we will be painting several scenes: Christmas trees decorated for indoors or if outdoors they are snow covered.  We will be painting snow men (or women),  kids throwing snow balls - anything that our imagination will take us.  These small Christmas scenes will be great gifts or gift cards.

 

Method:  Who knows?

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

 

Colours:  Full Palette.

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

 

Paper: A quarter sheet of 140lb, 200lb or 300lb good quality watercolour paper. Brand names to consider are Arches, Fabriano, Bockingford, TH Saunders Waterford or Windsor & Newton.  All are excellent for our purposes.

Also those who have acrylics, pastels and some sort of glitz bring it along, it will add to the fun.

 

Water Container, rags, sketch paper for exercises and notes.
