The artist will lead you in a watercolor painting lesson and show you how to capture the spirit of Vernazza. For a lesson in courage, come to our watercolor class where we will encourage you to paint without fear. Learn how to paint without the security of a pencil sketch and how to work with this tricky medium.
Strong, fluid paintings are achieved by being bold and careful at the same time. Watercolors can take on a fragile, gentle quality, but it can also be a rich and overpowering medium.[readmore] Watercolor artists know that producing consistently good art comes with years of practice. Therefore this art lesson will not focus on painting a beautiful piece. The artist will rather share tips and techniques that have allowed him/her to have a courageous approach in his or her own work.
This will enable you to be freer in your approach so that you can have a better sense of watercolor’s possibilities. The day will begin when we ascend to the “Vista della Terra” an amazing panoramic spot overlooking Vernazza. We will first take in the breathtaking view from up there, with crystal blue sea from one side and majestic rock cliffs from the other. The artist will inform you about what he/she hopes to achieve during the art lesson before showing you how to prepare the paint for a session such as this.
The lesson will start with “loosening up”, a technique to help students relax and be bold. In addition, our professional will also show you specific watercolor techniques, moving from one student to the next to ensure that your needs are met on an individual level. Make sure you take in all the vibrant colors of Vernazza on this class suitable for beginners as well as experienced artists!
