Maxine Wade
Maxine is a member of the Australian Guild of Realist Artists (AGRA) for 18 years and a member of the Watercolour Society of Victoria for 15 years & the Victorian Artists Society.
I focus my students on the fundamentals of both art and watercolour painting, with an emphasis on correct drawing, compositional skills, colour mixing and especially values.
We will be working with a wide variety of subjects including landscapes, marine, figures, interiors, street scenes and still life. I will teach you traditional watercolour techniques that are particularly characteristic of this beautiful medium—wet-in-wet, drybrush, blending, washes and graded washes, lifting out and glazing. In addition to my own work, I will share with you through class discussion works by other artists.
We would like to pay our respects to the traditional owners of the land on which our building stands, their leaders, past, present and emerging.
