In this 4-session intensive workshop we will be using tube paints, watercolor pencils and a few of the FineTec Pearlescent Watercolors to bring out the jewel-like shimmering feathers of a these tiny but fierce little birds. We will be painting on Hot Press watercolor paper, which allows for more control of the paint and greater detail. We will use wet-on-wet and dry brush techniques to build the foundations of the birds and the background, then watercolor pencils to do the fine detail work.
