ICAN “Dip your Toe in the Water’s Fine”
Delighted to be presenting a workshop on how to use mark making, layering and value to create effective water reflections at this year’s national Pastel conference, ICAN, on May 29, from 9-4pm.
Students will learn how to use mark making techniques, such as scumbling, to effectively portray water reflections. Students will learn how to effectively convey reflections using changes in value, layering and shapes. After a series of mark making and blending skill building techniques and exploratory colour studies, students will use a step by step approach to apply colour layering and mixing techniques to create their own landscape reflection painting. Lots of demonstrations and individual support provided. A reference image will be supplied, but students have the option of bringing their own reference image.
