Paint a mountain stream! Learn how to make water look wet and splashy as it cascades over rocks and boulders. We will focus on the “anatomy” of a waterfall, negative painting and the creative use of color. Techniques will be demonstrated to address the various puzzles with which the artist is faced when painting this stunning, fascinating and challenging subject!

For this studio-at-home watercolor class we will use a photo and other class materials that will be sent to you by e-mail. (You are welcome and encouraged to paint from your own reference material whenever you wish.) During class time you will see demos and instruction with the painting demo shown full screen. You will have your own painting time during the class with individual critique throughout.
Class time will be structured, yet open enough to accommodate the artistic spirit within us all. Intermediate to advanced is suggested, but all levels are welcome and encouraged. If painting water is your passion, you will learn about and gain insight into painting a waterfall that will apply to this and future “water-scapes”. The only prerequisite is an attitude of joy in the act of painting!

Your registration will include a link to download a complimentary copy of Chapter 4, “Wet & Wild, Paint a Babbling Brook” from Julie’s binder-book WATERCOLOR UNLEASHED, THE NOTEBOOK.

Pollard, Julie Gilbert

Julie Gilbert Pollard paints in oil and watercolor in a fluid, painterly manner. Her painting style, while representational, is colored with her own personal concept of reality. "The eye may see as a camera 'sees', but the mind's eye sees an altered, imagined image, what it wants and hopes to see. It's that illusive image uniquely mine, along with a heightened sense of 'realness' that I try to express in my paintings. This world of ours is often a frightening and mysterious place, but it is filled with scenes and subjects that excite my eye and imagination! The magical allure of the natural world, and my reverence for it, compel me to attempt to capture its essense on canvas or paper."
