SUMMARY:In-person Workshop: Tony Couch
DESCRIPTION:New In-Person Workshop with luminary watercolor artist Tony Couch! \nAs this workshop was cancelled in March 2020 due to the Pandemic we are happy to announce that Tony is coming next May to Newton! Previously signed-up members have had the first chance to sign up again and now the sign-up for all of our NWS members is open. The location for the workshop is Newton and it will be a 3-day workshop\, May 5 – 7\, Thursday through Saturday\, 9:30am – 4:30pm. Please sign up HERE. \n \nThis will be an information packed workshop\, with Tony doing a full sheet demonstration painting each morning\, plenty of time for you to paint in the afternoon\, and a critique at the end of each day of all the work done that day.  He’ll unravel much of the “mystery” about design while he shows you how to make your paintings fresh and crisp – and he’ll make color much simpler for you\, too.  Many students have said they’ve learned more in one day at one of these workshops than in four years of art school! \n\nNo video cameras at the workshop\, please – but still cameras are OK.  \n\nEach workshop participant accepts full and complete responsibility for any risk associated with attendance and participation in this workshop and holds harmless the location provider and the Newton Watercolor Society from all liability\, claims\, losses\, and/or damages\n\n$425 for the members and $475 for non-members.\n\n

SUMMARY:Online Workshop “Quick Sketch Watercolor Portraits” by Pam Wenger
DESCRIPTION:“Quick Sketch Watercolor Portraits” by Pam Wenger \nThree-Half-Day online Workshop \nMonday-Wednesday February 14\, 15\, 16\, 2022\, 9am-12:30pm \n  \nLearn to paint portraits in watercolor in a spontaneous style that involves minimal layering and the use of transparent colors. In this three-half-day online workshop (M\, Tu\, W\, 9-12:30\, Feb. 14\, 15\, 16)\, we will focus on loosening up the portrait painting process and working to achieve a more relaxed look that highlights the beauty and freshness of the watercolor medium. Pam Wenger is an experienced artist and teacher and you can check out her work here. \n  \nShe will send a hard copy packet to each individual: reference photos\, four watercolor paper with lightly printed reference on it already. (No need to draw beforehand\, get right to painting.) She sends a sheet with small dabs of the 12 transparent colors she likes. Including colors like peacock blue\, hookers’ green\, Holbein burnt sienna. She provides tech tools and tips. \n  \nThe workshop is online via Zoom. She makes a recording of each day’s workshop\, and every night the recording is available. Includes demos which separated out. These recordings are available forever\, they are private. Students should be comfortable with painting in watercolor\, but do not need to have experience with portrait painting. \nWe will be using the Zoom platform\, so you will need a computer or tablet (larger than a cell phone) and some comfort level with using Zoom. She will send out a link to the class via email. \nThe workshop fee is $195 for all participants. \nPlease sign up HERE.

SUMMARY:Plein Air @ Home with Linda Rinearson - Painting Yorkshire
DESCRIPTION:Come join us on Saturday December 11th when NWS member Linda Rinearson will talk about painting in Yorkshire\, England from her second home in Harrogate\, UK. Linda spends about six months of the year in the UK\, mostly in Yorkshire\, which is her favorite location to paint. As it turns out David Hockney was born and raised in Yorkshire so we’ll also look at some of his watercolors from his book “A Yorkshire Sketchbook“. \nLinda will present a couple pieces that she created in Yorkshire. She’ll talk about the history and nature of the location\, any challenges\, and why she selected these places to paint. She’ll also show the different techniques she uses as she paints the classic Yorkshire Landscape. \nThen Linda will share some of her photos of Yorkshire. You can use these  photos as possible subjects and paint the Yorkshire scenes or go outside wherever you are and do a local plein air painting. Then we will all get together at 4:00 EST to discuss our paintings. \nA link to Linda’s photos was sent in the email announcement.

SUMMARY:Online Workshop: The Power of a Limited Palette with Brienne M Brown
DESCRIPTION:This is a 3 day workshop\, Monday\, Wednesday and Friday\, 3 hours per day\, November 15 + 17 + 19\, 2021\,  3:00pm – 6:00pm \nThe way to learn color confidence\, build a personalized palette\, and use the full power of color is to start simple and build as you gain experience.

The workshop is limited to 16 participants. \nPlease sign up HERE. \n

A short (3 minute) walk away is the much photographed Grist Mill and a larger picturesque pond (in behind)\, the little red school house and the Martha Mary chapel\, a white steepled little church straight out of a Norman Rockwell painting.  You can walk to the Mill site\, or drive and park.  \nDirections: Take Route 20 to Wayside Inn Road\, which is marked by green signs in both directions.

SUMMARY:Plein Air On Location (Thursday!) - Codman Estate with Cathy Manwaring
DESCRIPTION:Plein Aire at the Codman Estate\, 34 Codman Rd\, Lincoln MA – “The Grange” \nThursday September 23rd\, 10 AM – 12:30 \nHosted by Cathy Manwaring. \nPlease text me by the night before so I know you are coming. \nPark at the Estate (the entrance nearer to Rt 126\, lot on the left) not further down the road at the Farm. Entrance is marked by a small hanging sign. I will have my phone on so call as needed. \nWe will meet in the parking lot. There is a bathroom at the Community Farm barn/store (just inside\, second door on the left). Vegetables\, eggs etc. are for sale in the barn – quite a nice little farm store. Store can be reached via dirt road from Estate\, a lovely short walk. Folks can also paint at the Farm if they prefer. At the two-hour mark we will reconvene to share our work. Bring a picnic lunch if you are so inclined. \nThe Codman Estate never fails to please. There is a turn of the century Italian garden behind the 1740s mansion with a gazing pond filled with lily pads and frogs\, plus statuary and lovely plantings. Further down from the mansion there is a carriage house with a fenced in rose arbor garden (c. 1930s) in behind and acres of walled fields in front. There are tree lined paths and a short walk away (5 minutes) a working farm with lovely old white barns\, chickens\, pigs and a thriving farm store. If you are lucky the big brown bulls will be out in the fields\, and behind the estate there is a large pen with llamas. Something for everyone! \nDIRECTIONS\nFrom Route I-95/Route 128\, take Route 2 West 4.5 miles to Route 126 East past Walden Pond. Take the third left on Codman Road. Codman Estate is 0.5 miles on the left. \nFrom the East I prefer coming in along Rt. 117 and turning right onto Rt. 126 at the lights\, then right again onto Codman road at the small triangle. Estate entrance is a half mile or so down on your left\, marked in red below.
