Live class tomorrow - texture and a highland cow (Patreon)

Hi everyone! Tomorrow is our live class - Monday February 23rd, 12 PM MST

The picture above had the most votes and I can’t wait to show you how to paint this beautiful scene with a focus on textures.

Materials:

paper- I'll be using a 4X6" piece of arches watercolor paper, taped down.

paint- Bring any paints that you prefer, I'll be using the W&N limited palette of cad yellow, cad red, ultramarine blue, lemon yellow, perm rose, cerulean, indigo and sap green.

brushes- We'll be using our regular brushes, size 4 and 10 round, and also a rigger or liner brush size 1.

for the texture- bring anything you have loved using this month! I'll be trying to use as many techniques as I can: cling wrap, card scraping, utility blade, dry brush, salt etc. The rocks and stones in particular will be great for experimenting with texture, and I plan to show a few different techniques so everyone can do it their own way.

**If you're worried about sketching out the cow, try printing the image and using tracing paper or parchment paper to transfer the sketch directly to your paper before we start. There are lots of tutorials on youtube you can find to make this process easy.

If you can’t make the live class, don’t worry! All classes are recorded and available to watch any time after the stream ends.

The link for the live class will be posted tomorrow morning and you’ll be able to click the link and join at 12 PM MST when the class starts.

Let me know what questions you have! Can’t wait to paint with you
