In the “Graphic parrot” online Creative Class Julie introduces you to the simultaneous use of complementary media and offers you the opportunity to create an original composition focussing on the jungle. A graphic parrot surrounded by imaginary branches, which comes to life thanks to gouache and coloured pencils.The result? In shades of vibrant blue and terracotta brown, the bird gradually reveals its nature. During this workshop, Julie teaches you the art of compositions using light, limited colours. She demonstrates rough sketches, abstract forms, the use of gouache combined with colour pencils. So grab your equipment and discover a tropical setting, filled with modern plants, animals and more than a little imagination. Let your instinct guide your drawing!

Biography :
Watercolourist and illustrator, Julie Thomas expresses herself through watercolours. A medium that enables her to create original transparent effects. Her favourite instruments? Gouache Studio and Supracolor Aquarelle pencils. Media which, when mixed with water, help her create evanescent atmospheres in which losing yourself is a genuine meditative pleasure. Always eager to share her passion, Julie has only one wish: to pass on the knowledge she has acquired over the years. She invites you to let go, to listen to your instinct, in a playful universe, where each technique and product offers an infinity of possibilities.
