Paintings done in watercolor are luminous and bright, more than in any other medium. This luminosity is achieved by allowing the white of the paper to shine through thin glazes of color in the bright areas of the paper, and to contrast these areas with darker areas of color. This course will help you to plan your watercolor paintings as blocks or shapes of white and dark to achieve the freshness and luminosity that are the glory of watercolor painting.
