Sketching and Watercolor: Journal Style

Register here

$85.00 USD
Perfect for beginners! Classes start October 30, 2013
     
   
Be inspired to record your life, a special trip, or your daily adventures in a loose, quick journal style format. Jane who is known for her friendly, encouraging teaching style, will teach drawing and watercolors using a straight-forward, intuitive approach. You’ll draw what you see, capturing the details of everyday objects and the small details of life on watercolor pages. Everyone has their own drawing style, just like handwriting, and Jane will help you to see and then record what you see on paper. The class is geared for beginners, but all levels are welcome. (Really, even if you haven’t drawn since 3rd grade, Jane can teach you!)  Jane will help you compose your journal pages, and show you a number of other creative ways to enhance your pages.
Each week you’ll receive an email with a link to new lesson, with a different subject or technique. The lessons are available 24/7 and you’ll receive a downloadable step-by-step pdf to work from each week. There are videos and examples from Jane’s sketchbook to support the lessons.  Just like in a real classroom, you’ll be able to see fellow students sketchbook pages and will be able to comment and praise their work and they’ll be able to see your pages too (as long as you post them!). And you’ll get honest and gentle critiques on all your work from Jane. 
(You’ll receive the complete list of materials (with links and descriptions) when you sign up, but basically you’ll need a sketchbook watercolor paper, watercolors, a watercolor brush, and a permanent ink pen, pencil and eraser. Don’t buy the stuff until you get the actual materials list)

$90.00 USD
for people who know how to draw and have experience with watercolor. Classes start October 31, 2013
  
  
There’s no substitute for learning to draw from real life objects, and that’s what we’ll do each week.  Jane will teach you her quick and intuitive method to drawing and watercolor. Then each lesson will be an assignment or suggestion of what to draw, and some new techniques and theme to enhance your illustrated journal entries.  Working in a 9×12” (suggested size) journal, you’ll be drawing every week, often working on one page for a few days, designing the page as you draw. This is the class to take your art journaling to the next step. 
(This class is geared for students who have had some experience in drawing. If you’re new to drawing, take Jane’s Sketching and Watercolor: Journal Style first.)

Happy, happy, happy birthday!!!!! I always feel like I should send you a gift every time I get out my sketchbook since your dvd opened my eyes to the fact that I can draw!
