🎨 Beyond the Basics: Watercolor Layering, Shading, Shadows & Depth
Ready to take your watercolor skills to the next level? If you've completed our Beginning Watercolor Class—or already feel comfortable with basic watercolor techniques—this class is the perfect next step in your creative journey.
In this hands-on workshop, we'll focus on one of watercolor's most important skills: layering. You'll learn how to build color gradually, create realistic shading, paint convincing shadows, and add depth and dimension to your artwork using transparent washes. Using vibrant fruit as our subject matter, you'll discover how thoughtful layers of color and value can transform a flat painting into something rich, luminous, and full of life.

Step-by-step instruction from a BFA artist and former educator
