THE EDINBURGH DRAWING SCHOOL
Edinburgh's original independent art school
Florals in Watercolour II
with artist & tutor Jason M Bentley, Wednesdays 1 - 3pm
Service Description
Study beautiful flowers from life every week hand picked by EDS! Watercolour is a “moving” medium. Combining its particular nature with the subject of florals offers a big opportunity for expression and experimentation. Driven by some basic colour theory, and a variety of useful brush techniques, we will become better at knowing when and how to control washes. But we don’t always want to! Allowing for little surprises can be fun and inspiring, and encourage development of the work in unexpected and charming ways. Jason will provide technical demonstrations when needed and personal guidance throughout class. This course is suitable for painters of all levels of experience. If you would like to take the morning session (10.30am - 12.30pm) in addition to this session thereby painting for 4 hours not 2, please e-mail the school and we will arrange a small discount for you) Jason is a contemporary realist painter with many years experience in watercolour. https://www.artworkarchive.com/rooms/jason-bentley/5e935b Class Materials List EDS provides / can provide: HB or B Pencil & eraser Plate palette brushes paper towel -We can provide basic watercolour sets but we advise bringing your own -Painters tape and board (if not working from a block) You bring: Variety of large and small brushes.
