Member Name
: Heidi Nelson

Price: $150 ($50 non-refundable deposit holds place, balance due 9/22/21)
Location: Heidi’s House of Art & Respite, 4008 Birch Knoll Dr., White Bear Lake, MN 55110 (2 miles north of Century College)
Description: This class for intermediate to advance watercolor students will paint a lifelike, full-color painting of one person of the student’s choice using my technique of glazing (layering.), The colors I use create a lifelike glow to skin, so the subjects seem to glow with life. On the first day of class students will be taught to create a line drawing to trace onto your watercolor paper. So drawing skills are not necessary. Class is taught step-by-step with demonstrations followed with help one-on-one. Each week will teach/demo a different feature of the face so try not to miss any days of the class. A supply list will be sent.
