About This Activity
Instructor: Lisa Pope Skill Level: Beginner Ages: 16+ Medium: Watercolors Total Class Hours: 15 Description: This class is designed for beginning painters who want to learn to paint with watercolor. Those with prior art experience are also welcome. Students are encouraged to bring images they would like to paint. I will provide one-on-one guidance. We will also do one painting together using my reference photo of a Ball jar with marbles. Together we will paint transparent glass with vibrant shadows in a realistic, detailed style. Students will explore how their paintings can be improved through complementary color harmonies, value ranges, edge control, and intentional design. During each class, I will conduct demos to illustrate various techniques. My goal for this class is to share techniques that work for me when painting transparent glass and shadows. My hope is that you’ll have fun and pick up some ideas to use in your own paintings. I am a signature member of the National Watercolor Society and five other art society organizations. I’m a self-taught artist whose work bridges realism and representation, capturing the essence of the subject without striving for photorealism. I have won numerous awards, both nationally and internationally, and have been published in Splash 26: The Best of Watercolor and Watercolor Artist Magazine: The Best of 2023 Watercolor.
