Jennifer will guide you through essential techniques such as using washes and transparency, wet-on-wet applications, dry brush effects, feathering and the use of tools to experiment with texture and application. Each technique offers unique ways to manipulate and enhance your work.All materials are supplied and no prior painting experience is necessary.
