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.

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 to your paintings. A good drawing in itself is a work of art.
