In week three, Catherine introduces exercises designed to help you master color mixing and negative painting in watercolor. You’ll begin by creating color swatches and shapes with negative painting techniques. Catherine will then guide you through color wheels and practice matching color samples, before applying these methods to sketches of a teacup and sunflowers. By the end of the lesson, you’ll have a deeper understanding of creating shapes and color harmonies in your sketches.

Throughout this course, you’ll have access to the NMA community for feedback and critiques to improve your work as you progress.
