Watercolor is a truly diverse medium. Explore techniques – learn washes, wet on wet painting, glazing and dry brush methods. We will begin to understand the properties of pigments and when to use them properly.

More advanced students move beyond the basics, creating a series of more complex paintings and completing their own interpretations of projects presented in class.

Watercolor is always challenging, fresh and new.

About Howard Rose:
Howard Rose has been painting with oils since 1989. He teaches privately and at The Art League of Long Island, the National Art League in Douglaston and has given many workshops at The Art Guild.

“It certainly was and is an exciting journey to become an artist and see the world through an artist’s eye. I love the challenge of turning an everyday scene into a successful and exciting painting. Inventing new shapes and colors, tweaking the design and making it read as you envisioned.

“What an honor it is for me to work with all of my students (in all my classes).  They teach me art, we solve world problems, and we share the struggles to get it right. Most important is the opening of their souls to other artists… a most vulnerable and special part of their lives.”
