Our first Watercolor workshop with @mtbrehm is next Sunday, June 29! 10am-1:30pm. “Brush Moves Water, Water Moves Pigment” is all about creating watercolors that are luminous and dramatic. 🎨Sign up today for $140 (link in bio) 💸Or bundle with Sketching Fundamentals for $250 (normally $280) The major goals will be twofold – first, effective brush and water handling to achieve clarity, precision, and luminosity in the washes, and second, approaching watercolor as a process of subtraction that reserves specific areas of light intrinsic to the page. We will treat the blank page as the only light source in our watercolor sketches, and focus on brush-handling skills and appropriate pigment choices to create truly transparent, glowing lights alongside rich and saturated darks. Using watercolor in this way will infuse our sketches with the warmth, clarity, and crispness of bright, dazzling sunlight, and we’ll be more able to represent the volumes and cool, shady depths of architecture, urban space, and landscape. #UrbanSketching #UrbanSketchers #USkSeattle #USk #Edmondssketchers #EdmondsWA #EdmondsArt #OnLocationSketching #DrawYourWorld #TravelSketch
