Sharon Long has been using her Magic Palette for over 30 years. This easy to use, durable and convenient tray has been a staple in her classes for many years. Students from all over the world have ordered her Magic Palette Kit to take advantage of her color mixing techniques. Developed by Sharon to give students a set of powerful tools to help them streamline the painting process. Instead of spending time trying to get together paints, brushes, instruction material, mixing guides, and artist trays, students can purchase everything they need in one kit. And the paint is already included in the tray!
In this lecture students will learn how to properly tape the paper to the board and then wet the paper so that the watercolor paints will flow and not dry out. Students will also learn how to divide the painting into sections so that the sky and waves appear very realistic.
This workshop focuses on painting Sea Oats and Waves and will take you through a project that is fun, creative and can lead to more advanced classes as they are offered in the future. And you will have created a beautiful painting of a beach scene that will delight family and friends for years to come.
You will learn how to properly apply Frisket to your painting to block off an area so that water and paint will not penetrate. You can then remove it later in the process and then paint that area.
Sharon will take you step by step through the process of creating an awesome beach scene using paints from her Magic Palette and guide you with tips and techniques to make it easier to paint with watercolors, even if you have never painted before.
At Sharon Long Watercolors, our mission is to have a fun environment for beginner to professional artist - to come together and work with their creative side.
We believe in unlocking the creative side within each and every one of us, and offer a wide range of subject matter to choose and paint from.
