5-week Art Clinic with J. Jordan Bruns–
Ink wash is not just mono chrome watercolor. It is a medium that celebrates sunlight and deep shadow, abstract shapes and high realism. It’s a chance to show off tight drawing skills and allow for spatters and happy accidents. It can be as simple or as complex as you want to make it. This is a great Art Clinic for drawing students as well as students interested in water-based painting.
This is an intermediate to advanced level Art Clinic.
