Creative Journey by Painting in Series

January 13, 2021 @ 7:00 pm - March 24, 2021 @ 9:00 pm EST

$100

In this workshop, you will come to understand the elements of design (line, size, shape, color, value, texture) and composition through painting in series.  Painting the same subject for the duration of this workshop and taking the challenges each week will force you out of your comfort zone into making a personal statement with your artwork.

Each class will consist of two parts: a lecture on the elements of design or a watercolor technique and a friendly critique. After a few paintings, a familiarity with the subject develops and the artist is able to look beyond it and explore the design elements. You will be encouraged to experiment with different papers such as Yupo paper, and different techniques such as under-paintings, collages and pouring.
