What is this workshop all about?

Living in the California harbor town of Morro Bay gives me many opportunities to paint lots of different seascapes and harbor scenes, and sailboats are one of my favorite subjects!

I think the reason I like painting sailboats so much is because they symbolize so many different things like freedom and adventure and direction. However, sailboats also can also carry a very powerful spiritual message with a direct connection to one's personal faith journey.

In this Watercolor Mastery Workshop, we'll be exploring how to paint sailboats and seascapes and sunsets, but, more importantly, I'll be showing you a few simple and universal concepts that can be applied to all of your future watercolor paintings.

Here's just some of what we'll be covering...

*How to turn reference photographs into a beautiful watercolor paintings.

*How to have ultimate and predictable control over over the medium when you need it.

*How selecting the right tools for the job will make or break your painting.

*Why darkening a value is much more than simply creating thicker pigment or adding darker paint.

*How to bring unity and harmony to your painting with composition and color selection.

*How knowing the basic simple anatomy of any animal you paint is important to a convincing result.

*How to paint convincing reflections in water.

And so much more!

FAQ

Watercolor is a type of painting created by mixing colored pigments or pan paints with water in a tray palette. Using a paintbrush, the translucent paint mixture is then applied directly onto a textured, cold-pressed piece of paper. Whether you are a beginner or a seasoned artist, watercolor painting is a great skill to learn!

Simple and easy! Watercolor painting is an amazing skill that can be learned relatively quickly. You can even learn the basic fundamentals and techniques of watercolor and start painting within a few weeks!

David J. Rogers uses the terminology: "tea", "one -percent", "two-percent", and "cream" to refer to the consistency of your paint mixture. This simple analogy David uses refers to a 1% milk consistency, 2% milk consistency, tea consistency, and cream consistency when determining the thickness of your paint.
