In Watercolor Pencils with Art Gecko, students will become familiar with basic materials and equipment, understand basic watercolor pencil techniques, execute key topics into basic designs, and find joy in painting and sharing knowledge with one another. Each week will bring a new lesson, learning increasingly advanced techniques, building on previous lessons, including the use of mixed media, pens, pencils, etc. The class will learn about materials, including brushes, brush care, paper, pencil techniques, color choices, and wet/dry techniques. Students will discuss composition as well as what makes a piece compelling, and what makes a piece boring. The class will do sketching, focusing on composition, and values to create a foundation for a great painting. See why students find classes with Art Gecko fun and informative.
*Students will purchase own materials for approximately $20. A supply list will be provided by upon receipt.
