Intuitive Watercolor Abstraction
Intuitive Watercolor Abstraction
Join us for abstract watercolor painting at Tenfold Farmstand, in the
historic Union District Schoolhouse, est. 1895.
There will be 70 paint colors for you to choose from, plus 6
metallics. You will spend time selecting your colors intuitively, for
the way they make you feel. This process is quite personal.
What we paint does not need to accurately represent real things that
we see in the "outside world". We listen to our intuitions as our
paintings build shape by shape, mark by mark, without planning the end
result. We paint simply and methodically, focusing on and enjoying
putting paint on paper.
High quality watercolor paint, very good brushes, 1 piece of Arches
140# cold press watercolor paper (and a second if you finish your
first painting), and set-ups for painting in class will be provided.
This class is designed for adults 18+
class sizes are limited to 6 people, please register early
$45.00 per class, 2.5 hours each class
Payable via check, cash, or Zelle.

Watercolor Fundamentals Part 2 (Class 6 of 6)
Watercolor Fundamentals Part 2
This next series will build on what we learned in Part 1, quickly refreshing some techniques and then applying them in our paintings. We will create more complex landscape paintings, skies and seascapes; wet-into-wet and wet-into-dry nature studies in a few different ways, and we will venture further into painting from our imaginations. We will explore abstraction and non-representational styles, where we don't look at something and try to paint it, but instead work intuitively with colors and shapes and let the paintings emerge and evolve from there. You don't have to know where you're going, enjoy the journey and see where it takes you!
