PaintZoom

    Painting for those who think they can’t draw/paint/be part of an art class

    Our next class is Thursday, October 21rd 2021 — 5:45 PM. — Beginners welcome!! We’ve been going back to first principles. The third beginner lesson is how to create a sketch from a reference photo. You can preview or catch up by looking at From Photo to Sketch on the TechShorts page

    You might want to challenge yourself by using only 3 colors for your photo to sketch.(Paintings below.)

    You can also get photos by going back to the reference photos in the Photo Archive Or go back to the photos for beginning watercolor

    Skip to the Videos, the Reference photos or the Tip Jar
    Visit the Video Archive to review earlier classes

    My watercolor instructor is now starting a zoom watercolor class. I helping her some with the technology since I’m doing an online college class due to the virus. One question how you do get to present the picture of painting the watercolor from above? What type of camera do you have and how do you mount it?
