Hello, my friend! Welcome to class.

In this class, we are going to layer watercolor, texture, and patterns to create these beautiful mosaic-inspired pieces. I love experimenting with color and pattern and know you will love this too. This is such a fun way to experiment with colors and try out different mark-making techniques. I think these look a bit like ceramic mosaic pieces or even stained glass pieces and that is what inspired this technique.

We'll start out in our sketchbooks to get started and create ourselves a small reference library of color. Then we'll move on to a small mosaic piece in our sketchbooks and finish off with a large mosaic abstract piece ready to frame.

This class is for you if:

You love learning new techniques for your art
You are interested in learning more about watercolors and making some fun abstract mosaic inspired pieces
You love experimenting with art supplies
You love watching how others approach their painting practice

Supplies: I encourage you to use the supplies you have on hand to do your projects. You do not have to purchase any specific supplies for this class. It is all about experimenting with the supplies you have and learning to let loose.

Watercolor paper - I Iike cold press 140lb paper for my bigger sampler pieces and 110lb watercolor paper in my sketchbooks
