Times: 9 am – noon (total hours 3 x 6 = 18 hours)
Ages: 15 years to adult
Location: at the Neil Balkwill
Description: This class will cover common problems that face watercolour, acrylic and pencil artists as their projects progress and possible ways to correct these problems rather than abandonment of the work. Sometimes you just have to start over but most often that is not the case. Even if that is the final determination, much can often be learned through persistence that can be applied to future works. Composition and ways of critiquing your own work for completion will also be covered.
