Many view it as “letting go” as control is tricky. Our class highlights this technique, building depth in paintings as they slowly dry, incorporating “lifting” and “masking” keeping the whites to create this classic Delaware marsh scene. Gerilyn Gaskill guides you through the process.    This class is for Beginner and Intermediate level painters. You will need8”x10” or larger pieces of good quality watercolor paper (taped or mounted on support board), Brushes - Round, Flat, Fan & Baker’s Brush, plus a Rigger (liner) brush, water container, paper towels, sea sponge, liquid masking fluid, drawing notebook, small misting spray bottle, water container, pencil, and kneaded eraser.  Your regular palette-your chosen colors-but add Yellow Ocher and Raw Sienna for sky effects. Go to www.MiltonArtsGuild.orgto register and pay. When you are registered you will get a code for the zoom class.  Please download the zoom.com program on your computer, tablet, or phone prior to the class so you are ready to go!   Gerilyn Gaskill’s passion is capturing the beauty of the Delaware coastline & Delmarva landscapes in watercolor, oil and acrylics. Her interest in art started young in kindergarten, helped along by her great-grandfather, artist August Seiler, who also painted coastal imagery. Her aunt Sheryl Woods of Lewes, DE also helped cultivate her love of art throughout her life, especially in plein air.  Her goal is to capture the here and now before it’s forgotten. She paints the changing time, a visual history that stirs your memories.   ### Venue: Milton Arts Guild.
