WATERCOLOR
This watercolor course explores the fundamental of this technique and deploys the potential it offers. From realism to abstraction, discover how to handle brushes and colors, through the mastery of paper and water. After having tackled the essential question of the material (the colors, the tools, the paper) we will quickly get to the heart of the matter: Washes and gradients, brush effects and filling methods, paper humidity, masking and use of reserves, material effects and other textures.
When we have seen all these practices, we will work on free subjects as well as the practice of «painting on the pattern».

DRAWING
In the studio and ONLINE
At first, you will learn the basics of drawing from nature : how to measure, how to recognize the shapes, understand the rules of perspective and composition and how to apply them. Further on, we will study portraiture and human figure and mostly use a black pencil, as we will look after the possibilities of tonal drawing (different greys, whites and blacks). Color study will be part of the program a bit later. During the last term, we will go outside and practice urban sketching. 
Throughout the year, different drawing techniques will be introduced : pencils from 4H to 8B, graphite leads, charcoal, chinese ink, color pencils, felt pens, pastels,… Wim is fluent in english, french, german and dutch.
