In this module we tackle the mystery of depth in painting. We will learn techniques such as layering, overlapping, using scale shifts, and some easy linear perspective to understand how to create space and atmosphere in our work. We will also learn to use tone to create volume. We will learn to mix dark colors and light colors to use in watercolor instead of using black or white paint. We will also take on negative space in watercolor how this can be utilized to create daring images. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/591b6fe5f7e0ab47eb4d4f4d/1607207443580-LGA18UM7WONKDGTBB9D7/fullsizeoutput_2fa0.jpeg Painting with Joy - About Your Instructor - Joy Meyer: . https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/591b6fe5f7e0ab47eb4d4f4d/1606702790487-0M56LB20B6E6M42CTONV/6.png Painting with Joy - Creating Balance In this final module I will give you an overview of the main elements of Composition.

Shape as Edge. In this exciting module we will explore shape in painting. You will develop a shape vocabulary that is specific to your interests. This vocabulary will help you to create more consistent and cohesive bodies of work. This will show you how to view the shapes in your paintings in order to abbreviate even the most complex scenes to a simple painting. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/591b6fe5f7e0ab47eb4d4f4d/1606701993463-GHZSN9WJRYR52DFXHIZQ/4-2.png Painting with Joy - Brilliant Color Mixing. This section will demystify color mixing and prevent you from ever making mud again with your paint! How there are two primary color wheels. We will also develop a personal palette here to help to unify the look of your work and make it seem more polished. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/591b6fe5f7e0ab47eb4d4f4d/1606349473440-Z4FJSCSIXYUY6W7116PB/Screen+Shot+2020-11-23+at+4.17.51+PM.png Painting with Joy https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/591b6fe5f7e0ab47eb4d4f4d/1606699842200-PH6ET2BP3UHOMV9FJ24M/1-2.png Painting with Joy - Mindset Shifts In this module you will receive tested methods to help shift your creative mindset.
