Description
Do you love nature and art? Would you like to learn more about them? If so, then this is the course for you. I am a former marine biologist turned full time artist and have been working as a professional artist for over a decade. Nature and art are my daily subjects so I am sure there are some valuable things you can learn from me. In this course we start off by going into the woods near my house and catch a Red Backed Salamander. We observe this beautiful creature, take some photos & let the little guy go. Next we head into my studio and I go over the list of all the materials you need to make this painting (not too many). Then I teach you my two core techniques, showing you "how watercolor works." Then we make a pencil drawing from our reference images. Here I show you a cool trick for getting the proportions right in your drawing. Then finally we get to the fun part of painting the salamander. Here I go through a step by step process of guiding you through my process of creating a realistic painting, one layer at a time. If you are patient enough to go through the entire course, I am sure you will be surprised at what a realistic painting you end up with. You will be proud of yourself and will never look at a salamander the same way again!
