PAINT LIKE MONET
Instructor: Mary Jane Erard
Ages: Adults and mature teens
Skill level: All
Students will learn the following:
- How to manipulate soft pastels and watercolor on pastel paper to create an impressionistic Landscape Painting.
- How and when to layer color for maximum impact. Some color theory is employed in this technique.
- two techniques on how to create depth with watercolor painted under pastels.
In addition to these techniques the class will learn from each other how each student approached their process to create a successful painting.
Students will walk away with two projects. One in a small size where we practice technique and one painting in 9” x 12”.
Our first project will be created on a small practice paper that your instructor will demonstrate how to layer texturizing agents to turn it into a good surface for pastels for exploration and from there students will employ best practices to create an additional larger painting.
All supplies provided but please feel free to bring your own set of pastels or f you prefer and a 9” x 12” sanded paper or board. Good papers to choose are Ampersand Pastel Board in any color, Colorfix Sanded Paper and UArt Sanded paper in any grit. All papers and boards are available at the Depo.
Cancellation Policy: We will refund 50% for any cancellation made at least eight days before the class. After 8 days, we are unable to provide refunds for any reason, including illness. If you cannot attend after registration, you are welcome to gift your tuition to a friend at no charge. We do not transfer tuition from one class to another.
