About the Workshop: This will be a step-by-step process where we will incorporate a theme picked out by the student, and adding paper, fabric, etc. to build the bones of our painting.  Then we will finish with areas of watercolor or acrylic or pencil or ink or some of all of the above.   Everyone will want to personalize a painting with a phrase,  photograph or memorabilia from a trip or event, etc. 

We will be working on backgrounds, color, composition, value, and some mixed media.  The student will finish at least 3 paintings, and maybe more, depending on their level of expertise.  Please bring the references you want to paint from, or feel free to use the instructor's example.  Some tips on techniques  and texture will also be included.

Results and fun guaranteed!!!!

SUPPLY LIST

Basic Watercolor Supplies:  Tube watercolor paints, brushes, water containers, palette.  We will be working on Arches #140 paper.  Please bring a support.  Feel free to work as large as you desire, at least 16 x 20.
