Watercolour Painting
Brenda teaches all the basics of watercolour painting from supplies and materials, watercolour washes and brushstrokes. Learn how to paint relaxing landscapes, exciting seascapes and portraits with personality. Whatever you want to paint, Brenda can show you how.
No medium can match the magic of transparent watercolor.
It has a freshness and immediacy that can’t easily be duplicated with oil or acrylics.
As it flows it has its own mind and students will learn how to adapt with unexpected changes and how to adapt and use them in their paintings.

Drawing
Brenda teaches classes in drawing. Drawing is the foundation of everything artistic. Yes I can teach you painting if you don't know how to draw but you would need to copy or trace your image from photographs. Learn how to align your hand with your eye so you can draw as your eye follows the outline of a form. Learn the basics of light and shadow. You will be able to use everything you learn here in your paintings. A good drawing in itself is a work of art.
