The Power of Contrast Workshop
$85.00
Saturday, March 25th

Tallahassee Studio
What is one thing that makes a work of art compelling? One thing that keeps you staring? As an art instructor, I know there is a list of things that make a work of art compelling but for this workshop, we will be discussing the power of contrast. I will show you how to use shadows, color, and highlights to your advantage to create an eye-catching piece of art through watercolors.
In this hands-on workshop, we will discuss foundational steps to creating contrast through watercolors. Including, selecting a good subject to paint, controlling the water, color mixing, masking, and creating intensity.
Attendees will complete a step-by-step watercolor painting during the workshop.
