Level Up Your Watercolor: Master Working in Layers
Level Up Your Watercolor: Master Working in Layers
If you struggle to add details or depth, I have created this class to help you become a master of layering.
This class is a must-watch for beginners and perfect to get in the 'watercolour mindset' if you are an acrylic or oil painter.
At the end of this class you will have learned these key concepts:
Mixing washes
Transparency
Different ways to layer colour including using negative space.
Order of layers for watercolour painting.
Working wet on dry
Using multiple layers in one composition - glazing, layering and adding detail.
Brush control and precision
Project
In the final project we will put it all into practise! We will utilise transparency and working light to dark in wet on dry layers to paint a sea turtle. BONUS: We will also create a notecard using negative layering.

Supplies
Watercolour brushes - round brushes in sizes that feel comfortable. Size 6 or 10 are good. I always recommend you have a 0 or 00 for fine details. It makes all the difference.
Watercolour paper - I like Canson and Fabriano. Anything that is 250-300gsm
Watercolours
A container of water, for rinsing brushes
Pencil and eraser
Flannel, or art rags
A white plate or palette for mixing colours
The templates found in the curriculum
and my Pinterest board.
If your watercolour paintings lack contrast or definition, this is the class for you!
