BASIC WATERCOLOUR SKILLS CLASS   
Nov 27 & 29  (2 days) 
Class runs 930 - 330 each day 
 This is a TRUE beginner class. For those who have never used ANY art medium or those new to watercolour  We are all there to discover the ways we can use the characteristics of this medium to make beautiful art.  This is a full 2 days to acquire the skills needed to harness the three factors that you need to allow the magic of watercolor to shine through.  We will be working on simple designs and projects to achieve this.  We will focus on the three factors of water, paint and paper.  This is a skills class so meant to be fun and and enjoyable way to start with watercolor.  ( See the info below on how to register )

Paint and brushes will be provided but you will need to bring along the paper. 
one (two if you can) full sheets (22”x 30”) of 140lb, cold Press, 100% cotton, Watercolour paper... common brands are Arches, and Fabriano
Please precut your sheets into 4 or 8 pieces ... easier to handle and we only paint on small stuff anyhow!!!  
These supplies can be purchased locally at the Qualicum Stationers, Opus in Victoria and Iron Oxide Nanaimo (when it reopens.)
If you would like to get your own supplies this is the suggested list.
bring what you have... 
.... this isn’t about having the right colours or brushes it is about developing skills.  If you do purchase something ... get ARTIST GRADE paints and paper!  Brands that are artist grade are ... QOR, Daniel Smith, M Graham, Holbein, Windsor Newton.

Alizarin Crimson
Arylyde yellow ( or Indian yellow or New Gamboge)
Hansa Yellow Light
Cerulean or Cobalt Blue

And if you are a bit hesitant to go to the art store I do have a basic kit you can purchase for $70
(Let me know if you would like to go that way. )
Brushes I tend to use mostly Mop, quill or round brushes ... larger #12 round or larger  than smaller.  But you don’t need more than a couple brushes ...
