Iris Watercolor Portrait with Renee Pearson
Wednesday, Feb. 24
9 a.m. to noon
All levels: cost $35
We will discuss the form of the iris and learn to paint the fold and ruffles in which each petal is affected by the sun, shade, and shadows.
The painting will be done using glazing which involves the application of thin layers of transparent color, one layer over another.
If we have time, we will work on the background by mingling various colors which relate to the iris. It should be fun and I look forward to working with you.
