Description

For centuries the depiction of water has challenged artists. Its unique properties – transparent, reflective, moving, still – create wonderful visual opportunities. This course will cover water features such as rivers, lakes, creeks, and ponds. We’ll examine both the natural characteristics of water and techniques for depicting them:

  • how are reflections created and how to depict them
  • how the depth of water affects its color and value
  • the structure of waves
  • how the surface of water is affected by wind
  • techniques and color palettes for water
  • using water features in your compositions

How the Class Works

Full Access classes include written content, videos and a class forum where students can interact, ask questions, post their work and get feedback from the instructor. For most classes, there are 2 to 3 Zoom class meetings depending on the length of the class. These are typically held on Saturday at 11:00 am Central. They are recorded and made available to all students, so participation is not required to get the full benefit of the class.

  • The Class Course and Forum. The class content is delivered by written lecture, images and video on a dedicated platform accessible only by class participants. The Class Forum provides a great interactive learning experience where students can interact with one another and the instructor.  Students post their work for comment and critique throughout the class. The instructor responds to questions and work posted for comment and critique on a daily basis.
  • Students retain continuing access to the course content, including videos.
  • Zoom video conferences for discussion, critique and demonstration. Students can view and download the Zoom conferences to their own device.
  • Upon registration, you will receive a Materials & Reading List for your class.
