In this Line and Wash watercolor class, we will learn how to combine line drawings with watercolors to create beautiful and interesting works of art. Great for beginners and those looking to try something new!

We will start by creating line drawings using pens or markers. Students will focus on capturing the basic forms and details of their chosen subjects. Once the line drawings are complete, the class will move on to watercolor techniques. This could involve learning how to mix and apply watercolors, create gradients, add textures, and experiment with different painting styles.

This class combines the technical aspects of both line drawing and watercolor painting, making it a great choice for artists looking to explore the harmonious relationship between these two mediums.

    Instructor (Brad?) was excellent. My teen daughter was in the class and I stayed to keep her company/observe. Brad was very pleasant and knowledgeable. He was clear in his teaching and allowed the students opportunities to practice the skills he introduced. He was very willing to answer questions and to help students practice skills to get them closer to their specific goals. I'd definitely bring my daughter to another class!

    Hi! I'm Brad and after a long run in the professional world, I've been fortunate enough to take the skills I've learned and turn them into a business with the goal of helping you make and keep memories! Having a Master of Education degree and successfully working with both kids and adults, my goal is to make your picture-taking experience fun and stress-free. As the saying goes,
    "A picture is worth a thousand words" and for me, picture-taking is the essence of storytelling. Remember, some of these pictures may hang on family walls for multiple generations!

    I've been married for over twenty-five years and am a dad to two daughters, two dogs, and two cats and I enjoy traveling the world and learning about new things. I look forward to meeting you and seeing how I can help tell your story through images. I invite you to look through this website to see examples of how photographs can capture moments in the most unique ways.

    This is a single 25-second exposure of the Milky Way over Stanley Lake, Idaho taken in Sept. 2023 with no moon. Was attending a photo workshop at Redfish Lake, Idaho and went out for a night shoot at Stanley Lake. Had to wait some time for the Milky Way to get right over the saddle in the mountains to get the shot where it appears to be coming out of the mountain. Taken with a Nikon D750 at 16MM at F4. Only editing was some denoise for Astro in NX Studio.

    I was testing out a new backdrop that I purchased for a family mini Christmas shoot that I have coming up. I used to make my children be my models but since they are grown Zeus, my boxer, was such a good boy and was my model. This was shot on a Canon EOS 6D with the EF 24-105mm f/4L at 24mm, ISO 320, 1/160. I used two Alien B800 strobes with white umbrellas.
