Course Description

Overview

Description Capture gorgeous scenes as you learn how to draw details with techniques for creating contour drawings, grisaille underpaintings, beautiful watercolors and more. With artist and instructor Steven Reddy as your guide, you’ll start with how to break down a complex scene into an initial sketch that’s light and loose. Then, create a contour drawing that will be the foundation for a successful piece. Once that’s complete, Steven will teach you how to create a grisaille underpainting that will bring extraordinary dimension to your work. Move on to using a limited watercolor palette to enhance your piece with harmonious color. Plus, finish your work by using contour lines to suggest shaping and hatch marks to create texture. Learn how to draw detail to depict the world around you in ink and watercolor!
