I had the class work from black and white, vintage photographs. I like the way that old photos fade. The students don't get all caught up in detail and can simplify their paintings to just shadow shapes. They also can choose their own colors and ended up using some fun, unexpected colors. All of them did a great job. This is my demonstration, about 8x10 inches done in watercolor.

Thanks to Sam and Sheila.
I always look forward to my classes.
Maria, what a great idea! I love the looseness and painterly quality of your piece.
