Learn how fill a sketchbook fast, banish fear of the blank page and stay inspired. Embrace texture with pre-prepared backgrounds then add mixed media including colour pencil and watercolour, which add depth and visual interest to your sketches.
During three full-length demonstrations, I offer insights into the process to give you a deeper understanding of how to harmoniously combine the inky background as you layer on various mediums.
Here's what I'll cover in this class:
- Work loosely to capture the the essence of the subject (rather than getting caught up in details)
- Create textured backgrounds to encourage spontaneity and energy in your sketches
- Discover how to observe, focus on shapes and contrast
- Let let go of expectations and embrace the freedom to experiment playfully.
I share all my materials used including brands and shades of each watercolor, colour pencils and inks.
