Creating undulating horizontal strokes will yield a wonderful pattern for the vase. The class will begin
with creating free form wide and barely touching the paper, tiny brushstrokes. Participants can also choose to paint a see through glass vase, which will be demonstrated. Participants can choose doing purple or blue Anemones; the colors change, but the techniques are the same.
Liquid watercolors and pallets will be provided for use during class by the Marlborough Arts Center. The proper brush is very important to learning the brushstrokes used in class. The instructor would like students to have one Princeton Velvetouch #10 brush (NOT LONG). The brush is available for purchase for $10.25 when you register.
Supplies each participant must bring to class are the following:
