Freehand is a technique that can be as easy as slathering wash all over a model and I will show you how. The class will focus on developing shapes into images by layering in gray scale. A good knowledge of glazing will help when it is time to color our freehand but is not required in order to participate. The only skills required are a decent level of brush control and wet pallet mixing.
