FUNDAMENTALS OF WATERCOLOR | 18+ YRS Kevin Buckland This is a fun and essential approach to watercolor painting for any artist, beginner through advanced, wishing to improve their paintings. Work at your own pace and skill level. No paint along with the instructor as in traditional art classes. Each artist selects their own photographic reference to work from; a subject with meaning and specific interest to them.
