Watercolor Impressions will focus on the use of watercolor to paint exciting impressionistic paintings from photographs and explore the use of light and shadow to create interesting compositions with dynamic results.  We will examine the fundamentals of watercolor painting to assure that all students are familiar with the techniques. Daily discussions and application of the principles and elements of design will be woven into your painting experience.  Each day you will engage in exercises that will solidify the content that you are working on and spend time viewing other artists work. We will discuss the methods and the impact that these artists achieve using their techniques.  Michael will demonstrate his approach to creating landscapes and cityscapes and show you several high-speed video demonstrations. And you will have ample time to successfully complete your own paintings. Michael welcomes novice and advanced students and tailors the experience to individual needs.
