Are you unsure how best to apply watercolor to your sketch so that it enhances your drawing? Do you sometimes feel your watercolor is dull, overworked, and lifeless? The key to adding drama, punch, light, energy, form and interest to your drawing is to focus on VALUES.
VALUE is the lightness and darkness of your paint
In this workshop, we'll:
Explore example sketches to understand WHY attention to value makes such a big difference.
Learn HOW to make beautiful lights and darks with your watercolors.
Discover WHERE to apply lights and darks in your sketches, so the end result has punch, light, and drama.
