1. Introduction
Don't worry if you have never used gouache or Indian ink before. This course will suit you. If you are a more experienced artist who likes to try exciting techniques, then you will love it too.
You will come away with lots of transferable skills, confidence and knowledge. Watch the introduction film. If you like landscapes, then you might also enjoy this course, which uses a view of the Ridgeway trail as its inspiration: https://www.lizchadertonstudio.co.uk/ink-resist-aka-gouache-wash-off
This course is intended to be as close as possible to sitting next to me in my studio learning. We will cover how ink resist works, the materials and techniques you will need specifically for gouache wash off and then go on to plan and paint a turtle together. At the end, I will give you tips on presentation and specifically show you how to adhere your painting to a cradled board and wax it. This presentation allows you to display your work without glass, but it is entirely optional if you prefer a more traditional framing.
This is not the right course if you don't like surprises!
