This course starts off with gouache color mixing, end ranges of values, then uses Procreate (digital painting, using a tablet) to study color variation and subtle hue shifts and then brings the learning back to gouache.
At the end of the class, you will have made:
30-50 thumbnails
1 x night scene in a 6"x6" format
1 x sunny day scene in a 6"x6" format
1 x scene of your choice

Hello! I am an avid painter, sketcher and instructor. I've taught watercolors, digital drawing, charcoal, ink but I really teach when I want to push myself to think beyond what I am producing in my studio.
For those who haven't taken a class with me, 45+ workshops have honed and continue to hone my teaching skills. I've collaborated as faculty with Apple, Facebook teams, Urbansketchers, Plein Air Convention and Etchr Lab.
