Learn how to transform pure pigments and gum arabic into highly-saturated watercolor paints. The ratio of gum arabic to pigment will be emphasized. The “Classic” version offers a selection of 25-30 pigments that vary in characteristics- gritty, fine, opaque, transparent, earth, synthetic, pearlescent, etc.
Experiment with custom color-mixing. Participants make a 14-color full pan set! Includes a metal palette that doubles as a carrying case.
Bring the following:
- Pen and paper for notes
- Apron and dust mask
- Studio shoes
Keep in mind that these paints will be liquid/fragile at the end of the class. It is possible to take them with you right after the class, but we do recommend allowing them to dry for a couple of days at the shop before coming back to take them home.
