Return to top of page. This workshop is designed for the beginning watercolorist. It will cover the basics of paper preparation, planning and drawing for your painting, paint application, and very elementary principles of design. Judith Hand will begin with a discussion of materials and then lead you through a series of painting with what your brushes and paints can do. There will be no formal break for lunch, but you can bring a bag lunch or take a break when it suits you.
Advanced registration is required.
Return to top of page. This workshop is designed for novice and intermediate painters who are already familiar with the basics of watercolor painting. Flowers are one of the subjects most beloved of watercolor artists. With their varied shapes, colors, and lines, they lend themselves beautifully to the medium. We will consider principles and elements of design with a focus on the geometric shapes exhibited in the different flower types and how to achieve a pleasing composition using floral subject matter.
