Composition, the importance of values, perspective, and the long shadows thrown by the sun passing far to our south come into play. Maybe add a wreath, a cardinal or a rabbit – you can’t go wrong with the holiday season in the air. Every student will be given individual instruction on the techniques needed to progress in their watercolor experience, creating with freedom. Lender kits are available at a small charge.

In-Person: 4-Day Expressive Watercolor: Flowers to Figures with Janet Rogers
Cost: $450 Members, $565 Non-Members, plus $10 model and flower fee, which will be collected first day of workshop
Please register by 04/06/2024!
Fresh flowers in the studio will be the inspiration for the beginning of this dynamic workshop – progressing to the head and figure. Through a series of fun painting exercises, students will develop a more loose and natural approach – giving them an opportunity to be more spontaneous and expressive in their paintings.
In our approach to learning how to interpret the head and figure, we will learn to express translucent flesh tones, while focusing on the gesture of the person. Painting children will also be covered. We will work primarily from photos, – I will send photos and sketches of demos I will be painting – but you may bring your own photos of someone you want to paint instead (or work from some of mine that I bring). Besides class demonstrations throughout the workshop, Janet will work individually with each person also, making sure they understand the painting concepts – a truly “hands on” experience. Focusing on discovering how to control and making dynamic color, design and expression, we will also have “Show and Tell” – an opportunity to share and see how we exceed in our expectations!!!

In-Person: 4-Day Workshop: Creating Expressive & Dynamic Watercolor with Sterling Edwards
Cost for 4-Day workshop: Members: $ 575.00, Non-Members: $ 720.00
Please register by October 11th, 2024.
There will be a wide variety of watercolor techniques that will be discussed and demonstrated including positive and negative painting, composition, using creative colors, glazing, charging color, and many more. We will begin each day with a demonstration painting that will be finished before lunch. The daily demonstration will be different each day so that you will see a wide variety of subject matter and styles including landscapes, floral, stylized, and abstract. My preferred method of painting is to use large brushes for most of the painting and complete the painting with a small amount of details towards the end using smaller brushes. The end result is a watercolor painting that is loose and fresh with expressive brushwork. Following lunch each student will have the afternoon to work on their own painting with assistance when needed. There are no requirements as to what subject the student paints or what size they prefer to paint.
