Loose watercolor painting is the art of letting go and allowing the colors to flow as they will.

In this workshop,  students will be guided in how to draw  compositions of the female form using transfer paper. Students will be guided step by step how to  paint with a loose and easy watercolor style.

 This is a beginner friendly class. 

Transfer (tracing) drawing tricks and tips will be taught as well as an intro to watercolor painting. This class will inspire you to the enjoyment of painting colorful and loose watercolor florals.

Loose Art : to communicate visually with suggestion rather than high detail.

This art class is LIVEstreamed in real time via Zoom. No recording will be available for this class.
