Watercolor Mingling with Anne Abgott, AWS, NWS

Truly a class about MINGLING . Using the pigments that Anne has worked with for 20 years, creating shadows that glow with warmth and vibrancy!

The pigments that” like “ each other and don’t make the dreaded Mud !

We will be using transparent pigments but also granulating paints for the sandy surface that the chair is sitting on.

I will also show you how I technically enhanced my photo to get these glowing colors.

Mask neatly only the very narrow white line where the brim of the hat hits the body of the hat , the tips of the back chair slats. The white shape on the slat between the thigh and raised leg.

Please have your drawing done ahead of the class.
