Why does Jason think this course would be of value to you as a painter ?

This course will help you re-think how you handle watercolour particularly in relation to saving white spaces. You will be able to move away from masking out the white sections using blotting out instead which is faster and more fun !

What will you do on the course ?

  • Find out which types of marks made using blotting paper will best illustrate water, trees, frost, clouds and hair.
  • Broaden your understanding of controlling wet in wet
  • Create several samples of effects using the ideas shown
  • Paint finished images using blotting paper as an integral part of the creative process.

What do you need to bring ?

You will need to bring your watercolour painting kit that you use at home to class. In addition to this you will need to bring several sheets of kitchen roll and a number of sheets of Gold Medal 140lb blotting paper.

Reference material can be found for this course at www.studio.jasonskill.com in the library section under courses. You will first need to join studio. This is free and only takes a few moments. You will also need to bring drawing paper, a pen and pencil, eraser and sharpener, some drawing paper, watercolour, or acrylic paper to the first lesson as well as your painting kit.
