In this class, we’ll paint a vivid sunset over rolling dunes—where fiery oranges meet deep purples. With bold contrasts and smooth gradients, you'll learn how to bring energy and depth into your skies, and sculpt soft sand dunes with rich tones and shadow play. This project is designed to help you loosen up, play with high-contrast palettes, and explore the emotional power of color in your landscapes.

Through step-by-step instruction, you’ll learn how to:
– Build smooth, glowing washes, dramatic clouds with depth and softness
– Layer shadows and light to shape gentle hills and valleys
– Use negative space to suggest paths and movement
– Work confidently with bold pigments and fluid techniques

Whether you’re new to watercolor or looking to deepen your practice, this class will help you approach your work with more freedom, intention, and joy. It’s not just about painting a place—it’s about capturing a feeling.

So come as you are, bring your favorite paints, and let the sky guide your brush.
