Schiele Watercolours: Nuance
VIDEO
In this engaging beginner's class we'll be focussed on how Egon Schiele--the 20th century master--created nuance and details in his work in order to understand how we can do so in our own. We'll be doing studies of Schiele's own work, exercises in replicating his techniques, and sliding that into how to use these skills in creating our own works from contemporary nude poses. No previous watercolour experience is required.
In this class we'll be covering
--How to layer watercolours and texture
--Detail in Schiele's Work and Background
--Texture
--Creating Details in your own work
