Fleming College

Watercolour Landscape Painting

Course Code: ARTS1324

Paint the landscapes of Haliburton in transparent watercolour with an emphasis on capturing the light. Demonstrations of technique will provide a clear understanding of how to describe the landscape and will be balanced with opportunities to experiment. There will be solid instruction in preparatory drawing, value patterns, colour mixing, theory and composition. Working from a photographic source, we will simplify with a quick value sketch then continue to a finished watercolour. Prepare to paint two complete works each day with assistance and constructive group critique.
