Topics covered will include:
- Recognizing Value Changes (light to dark)
- Review of Color – color harmonies, analogous & complementary colors
- Planning Your Painting; First Wax Application – and Initial Wash of Watercolor
- Continuing with the planning/diagramming process
- Building Up the Layers
- Batiking your painting
- The “Reveal” – removing the wax, sharing the results
If time permits, we will talk about how to proceed using your own photos, so bring your photo(s) – printed
both in color AND in black and white. Photos should be printed on plain copier paper; bigger is better than
smaller! Make sure your photos are not too dark – and have good light/highlight areas. Photos with good
light from an angle are best.
