Watercolor and Collage Workshop

About this book

Here is an original, bold, and entertaining workshop designed to teach you how to make better paintings by mastering collage techniques. Gerald Brommer, a nationally recognized art educator, demonstrates how collage can help you to generate dynamic compositions, emphasize texture, use line to its best advantage, and rescue unsuccessful paintings. And he explains how to effectively layer watercolor and Oriental papers to create strong, personal statements. After you have mastered the collage process and understand the many possibilities of this new technique, you will learn to use water media with and without collage to bring new vitality to your rendering of such diverse subjects as water, foliage, skies, rocks, and manmade structures.
