Not happy with the color in your paintings? Are you held captive to paint exactly what you see in your photos? Painting is so much more than copying what you see. The main focus of this class is to work on brush techniques and use transparent pigments to create luminosity in your paintings. Prerequisite: PD104 or similar experience
