Class Description:

Layers are an essential aspect of watercolor painting, and this class will demonstrate the effect of building up gorgeous, colorful-rich designs one layer at a time. We'll create a funky blob bookmark together that's not just a practical keepsake, but a beautiful demonstration of what layering can do.

You'll walk away with a finished bookmark that you can stick in your favorite novel and the knowledge that layering is one of your new favorite watercolor techniques.

What You Will Learn:

  • How to layer watercolor effectively
  • The power of building depth through multiple layers
  • How to paint organic, soft shapes

Supplies You'll Need:

  • Watercolor paper cut to bookmark size
  • Watercolor paint
  • Paint brushes
  • Masking tape
  • Two jars of water
  • Rag or paper towels
  • Optional: heat tool

This was a quick class that helps to improve brush control, paint/water ratio, and inspires creativity (cute blobs!). I enjoyed the teaching, the examples in class and the interaction with others in the chat. Thank you!
