Super Basics -- Beginner Watercolor with Greta Corens

Adult Classes | Registration opens 12/8/2025 12:00 AM

To start you off on the right footing and avoid the mistakes so many watercolorists face, you will find the principles of watercolor painting to be the most targeted and focused in this ongoing class. The first and most pressing to acquire are Values, Colors, Materials, and Basic Techniques, all of which we tackle with the spirit of a ballet dancer's moves. Adopting the principles of values from neutrals to brights, from dry brush techniques to washes, or of color palettes from delicate tints to deepest shades, and obtain insight into the color wheel, using primary-secondary-tertiary color, provides you with the verve and self-assurance of having acquired a solid foundation. Adopting this know-how leads to painting more complex subject matter in the next step, the Intermediate & Advanced Watercolor class.

Max. 8 students.
