Aquarell
Nicolas Lopez
Kurs Beschreibung
Mithilfe der Sprache des Wassers wird Nicolas die grundlegenden Ressourcen erforschen, um die Bedeutung von Wasser in der Aquarelllandschaft herauszufinden. Er wird mit seinem Pinsel einige grundlegende architektonische Linien direkt auf das Papier zeichnen, um zu viele Details und Starrheit in der Komposition zu vermeiden. So lässt er das Wasser die Elemente in seinen Kompositionen vereinfachen und gemeinsam mit ihm in einem kreativen, respektvollen Dialog malen.
Using the Language of the Water Nicolas will explore the fundamental resources to figure out the meaning of water inside the watercolor landscape. He will draw some basic architectural lines directly on the paper with his brush in order to avoid too much detail and rigidity in the composition. Thus, he will allow the water to simplify the elements in his compositions and to paint together with him in a creative respectful dialogue.
INTRODUCTION
This workshop aims to enrich the understanding of watercolor techniques, starting from defined points such as recognizing materials and some essential content of their components and their importance, applying them on the support with various procedures and approaches through the landscape. We will have two starting points to tackle, which we will develop through photographs and their interpretation.
Various exercises will be developed starting from "errors" to build personal knowledge, gradually providing different tools for solutions and successes that may arise, thus making learning more meaningful.
The workshop consists of basic criteria about what will be explained throughout, with exercises aimed at practical comprehension.
