Thank you so much for attending this class! I believe that art is a way to clear our minds of all the daily clutter and hopefully you were able to clear some of that clutter away today. Here are a few things to look at to explore what we did today and some other information.

Key Takeaway & Next Steps:

Practice Basic Watercolor Techniques:

Continue practicing the fundamental techniques covered in class. Regular practice is key to mastering watercolor painting!

Focus on Simple Subjects:

Start with painting simple subjects like fruits to build your confidence and understanding of how watercolors behave on paper. This can be a fun and rewarding way to learn.

Observe Real Fruits for Inspiration:

Use real fruits as subjects for your paintings to observe and understand shadows, highlights, and colors. This practice helps in developing a keen eye for detail.
