Painting Birds
Kristin Frost
$430
Come paint the beautiful, unique birds of North America in this fun and relaxed watercolor class. We will start by studying feathers, eyes, wings, branches, and skies, before progressing to full bird paintings with environments. Through live demonstration of transparency layering, color mixing, and textural mark making, students will build technical and expressive skills in watercolor. Composition, process, and the unique details of each subject will be explored as we discover the natural world together.
