SUMMARY:Outdoor Watercolor & Sketch Class
DESCRIPTION:Join us at Mount Auburn for an outdoor watercolor class\, taking in the beauty of the landscape and learning about watercolor composition. \n\n\n\n\nTaking in the beauty of Mount Auburn Cemetery\, we will take a short 5-minute walk from Story Chapel (across from the front entrance of the Cemetery) to a spot where you will choose your composition. You will learn how to lightly pencil in a “map” of your color-shape areas\, how to organize elements in the landscape\, how to find spatial planes\, then how to slowly build up layers of translucent watercolors to create space and depth while imbuing your watercolor with a beautiful sense of light. \nStudents who don’t bring watercolors may still take part in this class by sketching or drawing the scenes around you with instruction. Clipboards with paper and pencils will be provided. \nThere will also be folding chairs to sit on at the class location. \nRecommended: Bring a bottle of drinking water\, and supplies from the list below. \nBathrooms and a water bottle filling station are located at the meeting location\, near Story Chapel. Use these before we head out on our walk and to our class location. \n… \nThis class will be taught by Amanda Annis. Amanda loves teaching and taught for 20 years at the Boston Center for Adult Education\, including classes in figurative clay sculpture\, watercolor and drawing\, and continued teaching in her own studio. To see her works\, including watercolors\, please visit Amanda’s website at www.amandaannis.com. Amanda holds a master’s degree from the Univ. of NC at Greensboro in sculpture\, where she also studied bronze casting\, and has studied in NYC and Paris\, and she holds an undergraduate degree from Brandeis Univ. in Fine Arts (studio). \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nREGISTER HERE>>\n\nMaterials list: \nNote: Amanda recommends professional grade watercolors for more vibrant colors.
