Discover a range of illustration techniques in this class! We will explore methods such as collage, ink, and watercolor, and learn how to combine them effectively. Each week will be inspired by the work of various illustrators, allowing us to replicate their techniques in our own illustrations.

• Cold Press Watercolor paper: 12x18” or 18x24” https://www.dickblick.com/items/blick-studio-watercolor-pad-11-x-15-140-lb-spiral-bound-15-sheets/ (I also prefer arches or Fluid watercolor paper, but those are pricier)
