Say “Hello” to the Summer and paint this tropical scenery with me!

In this quick and easy class you will learn how to:
- choose an interesting composition for your paintings;
- make your colors look well balanced;
- paint natural looking skies and palm trees.

If you are a beginner in watercolor, this class is for you!

Often beginners find it hard to choose the right colors for their paintings.
Using paints straight from the tube or pan can often lead to unbalanced, unnatural looking results.
In this class I will guide you through choosing colors that go well together and will show you a quick trick that will help you achieve a harmonious and well balanced piece.

Painting a beautiful scenery doesn’t have to be complex or time-consuming, you just need the right guidance and you’ll be enjoying cohesive and natural looking finished paintings.

Join me and let’s paint this easy-breezy piece together!

Materials needed:

- Watercolor Paper – I suggest that you use 100% cotton 300 GSM cold pressed paper. Rough texture will also work.

- Watercolor Paints – a regular set with the basic colors would do;

- Watercolor Brushes – use your favorite brushes;

- White Gouache - we may use it to add some highlights;

- Two jars of water;

- You may need a pencil, an eraser and a ruler;

- Paper towel or a cotton towel for dabbing your brushes;

- Paper tape;
