Workshop details:
For the Closed Wing, Rainbow Colored Pheasant workshop we will be creating a beautiful, colorful Himalayan Monal (Pheasant) walking, in a background in watercolor, in a realistic fashion. Rosemary Schramm will be teaching the perspective through the use of color, of how to bring your piece into a 3 dimensional scene on a 2 dimensional surface using just watercolor, (and with light drawing to start).
A true Watercolor painting is where the paint is thin, transparent, and layered, not heavy and opaque.
We will be mixing colors for the scene and using pure colors from the tube.
Supply List:
Surface to paint on 16”x 20” watercolor already taped or a water block.
Watercolor Paints all colors of the rainbow plus black and white.
You may mix your secondary colors like green, orange, or purple etc.
It is necessary to start with primary colors from tube, red, blue, yellow.
Brushes: soft small pointed for detail, and other various shapes, sizes up to 1”.
Palette for mixing colors, a Styrofoam plate works, several is best:
- 1 for bird, 1 for background, 1 for foreground
Water holder, napkins.
Rosemary will supply a photo of the image MONAL PHEASANT in back & foreground.
Rosemary will supply simplified bird drawings in 2 sizes, to transfer. You will need a carbon or graphite transfer sheet & Pencil. Or you can free hand a light drawing right on to the surface.
Rosemary will demonstrate how to draw, and or transfer the image.
A blow dryer is nice to really dry the bird section before starting the background around it.
If you prefer to change colors, you are welcome to.
