Learn the basics of watercolor painting in this beginner class. No experience necessary. This course will focus on getting comfortable with watercolor techniques and enjoying the process of painting. The basics of color mixing, value, composition and use of materials and tools will be covered.
Through guided instruction and a step by step guided demonstration process, together we’ll paint simple landscape subjects. This will allow you to learn this wonderful medium in a fun and supportive environment.
A material list will be supplied prior to the start of classes. Materials are not included in the course registration fee.
Here's what they are saying about Beth's Beginner Watercolor Painting Class:
"Beth was a great teacher! I felt as though I learned a lot from her."
"The instructor. So helpful and observant. Constant instruction always there to help."
"Beth was very supportive and encouraging. Her progression of skills was great for a beginner. I appreciated that she gave suggestions for things to work on outside of class."
"The class size was small enough that everyone was able to get adequate instruction and ask questions. I am so satisfied with the class I took I have registered for the following class."
Since I was young I loved to draw and paint. That love blossomed many years later when I discovered watercolors. I started taking classes at a local community center and later studies with the likes of Andrew Kusmin, Paul George etc. I find it exciting to paint with watercolor because of the difference effects that result between water and paint. I’m inspired by light, shadows and color, most of my subjects are landscapes as I’m drawn to nature.
For many years I co-chaired the Westford Regional Art Event and also co-founded the gallery at the Parish Center for the Arts. My paintings sell through shows, fairs and social media. Please follow me at Beth_smith_art on Instagram.
