Misty Harbor
mini-course with Denny Samawa
We'll learn to capture the soft gradients of the sunset and the contrast between the bright sky and the dark silhouettes of the boats and pier. You'll discover how to build volume and paint realistic reflections on the water. The result is an atmospheric watercolor that won't leave anyone indifferent!
