Description

Join us for a vibrant and creative summer workshop where you’ll learn to paint a stunning betta fish using watercolors! 🐟 This workshop is perfect for anyone looking to enhance their watercolor skills while creating a colorful, flowing masterpiece. Step by step, we’ll guide you through the process of bringing this elegant fish to life on paper.
We'll begin by sketching the anatomy and compositional pose of the betta fish, ensuring you capture its graceful fins and unique shape. Next, we'll learn the basics of watercolor, including brush techniques, color mixing, and layering to create rich, vibrant tones. Using wet-on-wet techniques, you’ll apply the base washes, followed by detailed work to add intricate patterns, highlights, and shadows to give your fish depth and realism.
By the end of the workshop, you’ll have a beautifully finished painting of a betta fish, complete with lifelike textures and a dynamic composition. 🌈✨ Perfect for artists of all levels!
