Mixed Media Watercolors

This class will be on Zoom

Join artist Micah Goguen for this fresh new approach integrating collage and texture with watercolor. We will be using a series of wildlife images to clip, tear and paint our way through a foundation. We will then learn the secrets of QoR Light Dimensional Ground as an amazing layering process we can then embellish with watercolor using stencils. This is a fun and exciting way to work with these materials and to display without putting them under glass. No previous experience needed.

We will be working with QoR watercolors and Ampersand Aquabord as well as GOLDEN Super Matte Medium and QoR Watercolor Ground

MATERIALS LIST FOR STUDENTS

• Size 6x6 up to 8x10 Ampersand Cradled Aquabord (qty 2)

I like the 1/8 flat pack of qty 4 but they are not cradled. If you do not want to frame them, you may want to buy the single ¾ cradled panel instead.
