Online Watercolor Painting with Ronna: The Belted Kingfisher

This art class will be held live and on Zoom.

Never far from water, this stocky bird can commonly be found searching for fish. The Belted Kingfisher has a very distinguished shape and feather pattern that is super fun to paint in watercolor! Come enjoy an evening painting one of the most charismatic local bird species – the Belted Kingfisher, alongside Ronna Fujisawa during this online watercolor painting class. 

Ronna will demonstrate how to paint feather patterns on this gorgeous bird. The blue gray feathers and burnt orange markings of the female, is the perfect model for painting. This is a great introduction to Ronna’s signature style of how to mix color and paint loosely in watercolor.

The birds will be painted from a photo which will be sent to you before the class. Students will be painting alongside Ronna online, a step-by-step process she has mastered in painting birds.

Ronna strives to build an atmosphere of learning by encouraging students to take risks, showing support and encouragement, and working alongside the class to assist in the understanding of watercolor painting.
