In this live, interactive online workshop, Sterling will show a wide variety of watercolor techniques that are essential for painting a loose and colorful wooded landscape with watercolor.  There will be a strong emphasis on being creative and expressive with design and color. Some of the techniques explained and demonstrated each day include developing a strong composition, saving select areas of white paper for highlights, building rich dark values for contrast and drama, working with large-stiff bristle brushes, controlling edge quality, working on wet paper to achieve soft edges, adding calligraphy for linear detail, creating textures, expressive brushwork, and much more. Each day, Sterling will do a complete watercolor painting of a wooded scene within the first two hours. The paintings will vary each day and will cover subjects such as trees, grass, rocks, and moving water. As he teaches, he explains every aspect of what he is doing and explains his thought process as he works on each painting. Questions are encouraged any time. The remaining 2 hours of each class are reserved for students to work on their own paintings with assistance and critiques, by Sterling, upon request. It is not required that students paint the same piece that Sterling paints. This workshop is recommended for those with a working knowledge and experience with basic watercolor techniques.  Some techniques may be difficult for beginners.  Sterling has been teaching workshops for Cheap Joe’s for over 20 years, and his workshops continue to sell out, so sign up early!
