Baby, It's Cold Outside
Join Laure as we turn these familiar words into a piece of art!
Who hasn't muttered the words, "Baby, It's Cold Outside!" whether it was during the holiday season or during a particularly brutal cold snap?!
This project will be a whole lot more fun than that I hope!
We'll use our design skills to come up with the look and feel of the project. Through the process, we may even come up with more than one really good idea to be used in other projects.
Lettering plays a key role in this project so we'll spend some time making sure our hand-lettering sentiment comes across well. After painting the project, we will work on using our design(s) to create the perfect hostess gift and an ornament or two!
Your Instructor
Laure Ferlita is an accomplished watercolorist residing in sunny Florida. Watercolors, nature, travel, painting on location, sketching for the joy of it, and most especially, color, are her passions!
Vibrant color can be found in almost any subject and its shadows. It is her joy to bring those colors to life on paper with some paint and a little water. For many years, Laure worked as a graphic designer, so you will most likely see a strong graphic element in her work.
She started sharing her joy and love of sketching on location over at ImaginaryTrips.com in 2009 and has helped many "travelers" to find their artistic voice since then.
“Watercolor, for me, is the perfect sketching medium." Laure says. “It provides ease of use, quick color saturation, and clean up is a snap and really, you don't need much equipment. After you move past the hype of how difficult watercolor can be, you find out how much fun it is to get out there and actually create on location. It's way too much fun!"
