Continuing in the tradition of building community through watercolor, Valerie Mann is the instructor for what was Watercolors With Taylor Jacobsen. Mann continues with a welcoming atmosphere for beginning and experienced painters along with individualized instruction and demos. She will cover basic and advanced techniques in transparent watercolor. Beginners will get specific exercises to practice techniques. Students should bring an array of reference photos. This class is an opportunity to work on and talk about painting with other artists. We paint in a large room with plenty of space to spread out. Class ID: 1021. Instructor: Valerie Mann Supplies list: Valerie Mann would suggest the following, and you can probably get it at Michael’s, or order online at Blick or Cheap Joe’s: 1. Arches Watercolor Block (a stack of bound paper) smooth or rough, your choice, 16 x 20” 2. 1 tube each Pyrol Red, Lemon Yellow, Prussian Blue, Burnt Sienna 3. 1 tube manganese Blue, (if you like to paint landscape, especially) and 4. Quinacridone Red (or another deep pinkish color) 5. A few round watercolor brushes -not the cheapest, not most expensive, the larger, the better 6. Spray bottle 7. Palette of your choosing 8. Water container (ball jar or big cottage cheese-type container Alternatively, several of the students have Schmenke watercolor sets…take a look, can be expensive, but if you like them, lots of color possibilities. The more expensive the watercolor brand, the better the paints, in general. The cheap stuff will be disappointing.
