In Doug Canepa’s new class in Watercolor Plus Mixed Media, he will teach traditional watercolor and also simple techniques that will enhance students’ ability to produce their own artwork. Adding mixed media to watercolor may help students develop their own style beyond basic watercolor. Three Open Studio days are included for students to work on projects with Doug’s individual attention.
In this class, Doug will explore strategies beyond traditional watercolor painting by adding acrylics to make images pop. Textured paste, colored pencils and charcoal pencils will be used for texture. Burnishing and blending tools will be introduced as well as pen and ink. Individual critiques will help students progress along their chosen path.
Join Doug for this exciting class on Wednesdays, November 6, 13, 20 and December 4 from 10 a.m. – 12 noon in the Cribari Center Art Room. Doug will skip the Wednesday before Thanksgiving. The fee for this class is $70.
Bring your own materials and Doug will furnish burnishing tools, charcoal, colored pencils, texturing paste, charcoal pencils and ink. A wide range of subject matter will be based on student interest during the class.
Join the fun and explore the possibilities by emailing barb.gottesman@gmail.com. Student fees, with a check made out to Doug, are due to Barb one week before class begins.
