Hello, my artsy friends!

2b10f5dc

I have something very special to share with you today!

I am honored to have been asked to work with an amazing group of teachers to bring you a special set of classes on Mood Boards!!

A mood board is an arrangement of images, materials, text, and textures intended to evoke a particular mood/emotion, style, or concept.

In other words,

A mood board is an inspirational way to convey information.

They can be used for a variety of reasons and made with any type of art medium, including collage, traditional art media such as watercolor, and even can be done digitally. But, you can learn more about that in our classes!!

We’ve gone all out to create a unique set of 5 classes that you will love! Each class in the set will include at least one mood board lesson. The talented teachers I’m working with each have their own specialty.

Let me introduce them!!

***Also note: For each class, we have included 5 free links for non-premium Skillshare members. You can find them under the class photo!***

Watercolor Mood Letters

5 Free Links for for non-Premium Members-Watercolor Mood Letters

In my class, Watercolor Mood Letters, you will learn the techniques I use to create a hand-lettering piece using color themed mood boards as inspiration for color and texture. The class will go over some basic understanding of some of the fundamentals of art including: color, texture, balance, and movement. It will also cover some basic lettering styles including: blackletter, serif, sans serif, and script. Combining all that the class teaches, I will demonstrate how to create a step by step class project consisting of six different styles of the same letter using a specific color theme. It is a fun and beginner friendly class that I try to teach some understanding of the art process as well as how to make moody letters. I can't wait to see what you make!

Abbey Otto Wilson - Art on Instagram Art on Facebook

Have you ever found it hard to describe yourself without feeling like you are bragging? For some reason I feel that way, and I know I shouldn't. However, when asked to describe my work, or just talk about myself, I feel out of my comfort zone. That's why I'm going to include these extremely nice words by my talented friend, Jessica Sanders:

Abbey Otto Wilson is a letterer extraordinaire who loves to use watercolor and brush pens as mediums to create. Abbey’s lettering style is unique. She embraces a lighthearted and playful style - and the results are amazing! She’s only been teaching on Skillshare for a short time, but her classes are great! Abbey’s approach to teaching allows even the most inexperienced student in lettering to be successful.

Thank you so much, Jessica!

And thank you to everyone else who has taken my class(es), shared your beautiful work (on Instagram too), and left such sweet reviews. It really makes me happy to be able to share my knowledge of art with you and to see what it is you create with it.

Okay, now go check out all these fun classes. I hope you enjoy learning and creating as much as we loved putting it together for you!

Happy Creating!
Abbey
