Gather Through

Joyful Water + Color

Gather Artist: Michael Gatlin

Water is something every child loves playing with. And when we paint with watercolor, we slow down—we layer water and colors to reveal what’s going on around us, outside of us, or even inside of us. In this Gather, we’re going to play with water and we’re going to add a little bit of color, giving and taking to see what can be revealed. We’ll learn about materials, color itself, and techniques such as wet-on-dry, wet-on-wet, layering, and feathering. We’ll see how time itself is an important tool in this process. And we’ll practice how to create a full scene, layering water and color to create dimension and depth.
