Trees in Watercolour with Nicole Warrington – ONLINE

Class Description:
This class is delivered online with limited seats for a highly interactive experience with your instructor.

Learn how to paint beautiful trees in a variety of styles through a series of watercolour painting exercises.

Explore colour mixing, and how to control value, shape, and texture. We will practice controlling line and line ‘weight’ through brushwork. Learn how to use ‘wet into wet’ and ‘wet onto dry’ layering techniques to create different atmospheric effects. You will gain an understanding of how a high quality 100% cotton paper will make your paintings sing!

Online Format:
This class will be delivered using an app called Zoom that you will need to download. You can participate using your mobile, tablet or desktop. Prior to the class, you will be emailed instructions on how to connect with the classroom.

*Please note – Our goal is to create a highly interactive classroom environment and be able to give personal feedback to each participant. Therefore we ask that only one person attend a class per registration.
