The Pros and Cons of Masking with Betsy Rogers-Knox
Challenge yourself with a variety of fun exercises exploring all the ins and outs of using masking fluid which can enhance and add interest to your watercolor paintings. We’ll discuss different brands, how to create different effects and the use of pen or brush on different papers.
Masking can be an effective tool for building layers of texture for certain subjects, such as bark, ground litter and rocks!
Below is a list of materials that I would recommend for the class. If you have favorite materials at home that you’re comfortable using, please feel free to bring them along. I’ll have extras of everything so no worries if you’re not able to obtain all the items.

- Quinacridone Gold - DS
