Great question! Here is a short description for every single class:

Recording: Materials

Learn the different kinds of watercolour paper, brushes and paints.

Live Session 1: Watercolour Relationships: Wetness, Dryness and Washes

Learn about washes, an essential watercolour technique that will give life to any painting, as well as understanding the relationship between water, paper and paint.

Live Session 2: Layering and Glazes

Learn how to use darks and lights to your advantage, as well as the basics of layering and glazes while painting a landscape from your head.

Live Session 3: Negative Space and Masking

Paint white subjects and understand how to apply different masking techniques.

Live Session 4: Tone

Learn how to paint in terms of light to dark; and how to use tone to your advantage. The class will focus on how to consider tonalities when painting in watercolour, and how that will unlock how to make rich and nuanced paintings.

Live Session 5: Colour

Go through the basics of colour theory, temperature and intensity, and how to apply these in your paintings.

Live Session 6: Form and Texture

Learn how to convey convincing forms and textures through painting with watercolour.

By the end of this course, you'll possess the knowledge and skills to embark on your journey as a proficient watercolour artist.

Jun-Pierre will do a live stream for every class. The video and audio is pre-recorded to ensure the best quality with minimum technical issues, but Jun will be speaking through the introduction, Q&A and conclusion.

You will be able to participate live through the chat function. The teacher and the host will address all your questions and pause the video if needed.

After each live session, the recording will be available for replay.

At the end of the course, we will do a fully live Feedback session with Jun. You'll be able to participate via chat, ask all your questions, and get feedback on your final assignment.

No Problem! Each week has an assigned class. You are welcome to join the Live class and watch the class with other participants or watch the recording of the class at your own time during the week.

Jun will be present for every single class. He will be available to answer any questions.

Each class will present you with a new challenge assignment. If you submit it on the Etchr website asking for critique, you will get feedback from Jun and other group members.

At the end of the course, Jun will also provide feedback on your final piece in a Live Feedback Session.

However, it is worth noting that this feedback will be at a high level; something to guide your next steps. This is also reflective of the price being charged for the 6-class series plus the support and feedback provided along the way.
