Workshop Description:
Join internationally renowned watercolorist Sterling Edwards for a three-day Live Zoom Class as he shows you three different approaches to producing a watercolor painting. Each class is five hours long with a one-hour lunch break. All the classes begin at 10:00 am Eastern Time. Everyone will break for lunch from noon until 1:00 pm. Student painting time is from 2:00 pm until 4:00 pm.
In each of Sterling’s classes he will do a complete painting with detailed explanation in the mornings that will take approximately two hours. There will also be a brief break or two in the morning sessions.
Following lunch, students can paint anything that they wish and any size that they feel comfortable painting. Sterling will be available to help on an as requested basis.
These workshops are for all skill levels, however; previous watercolor and drawing skills are always beneficial. In every one of the classes, you will see a multitude of creative watercolor techniques including, saving white paper, creating a strong composition, negative painting, glazing color, introducing rich darks to create drama in your paintings, creative brush techniques, color mixing, working wet into wet, controlling edge quality, and so much more.
See for yourself why Sterling Edwards is one of the most sought after watercolor instructors in the U.S and abroad.
Each participant will also receive a link to download the class for future reference. This allows each participant to practice at a more leisurely pace.

David Smith
dsmithfineart.com February 8, 9 and 10, 2021 YouTube Live Stream Workshop 10 am - 1 pm with One Hour Zoom Q&A Afterwards "Master the Mist" AND "Three Shades of Gray" Watercolor All Levels Welcome! Registration includes: 3 days of on-line instruction, 3 days of online chat with artist each evening, 1 month access to on-line recording of workshop, and years of inspiration! Fee: $108 payable to Wanda Boyd Please use the registration form to mail in payment. or Click to pay via PayPal |
Workshop Description:
For "Master the Mist" -- capture the magic and mood of pines enveloped in soft mist as we explore techniques to create soft and lost edges. By understanding how water reacts on the paper and how to prepare the paper properly, misty effects happen naturally - without scrubbing and lifting. Participants will also learn to create beautiful skies as well as trees that look natural versus mechanical looking trees one might create with too much brushwork. If that's not enough, we can also include some techniques using a sponge, palette knife, how to suggest waves, create birch with a variety of textures, and sun rays! You'll all sleep well after this class. For "Three Shades of Gray: Light, Middle & Dark Values" -- Not 50 Shades of Gray! . . . that might be too exciting. We'll show our passion through the magic of watercolor. In this class, we'll plan out our colored masterpiece by first painting a value-painting. Through the process we will learn to simplify a subject into it's basic shapes and the multitude of values into three. We'll unify the painting with light washes and connect individual shapes by linking them through subsequent stages. Negative painting and "keeping the bead" are other concepts emphasized.

Karen Knutson
www.karenknutson.com February 15-17, 2021 In-person Workshop 9 am to 4 pm (1 hour for lunch) "Watercolor & Wire Drawing on a Textured Surface" All Levels Welcome Fee: $342 payable to Wanda Boyd (If requested in advance, Karen Knutson can supply collage papers for an additional supply fee of $4.00.) Please use the registration form to mail in payment. or Click to pay via PayPal |
Workshop Description:
Beginning with collaging neutral fiber papers onto watercolor paper, the students will add a wire drawing (a drawing that is done with a permanent marker and looks like a wire sculpture). Students will complete the painting using watercolor. The second painting will involve students painting a floral of their choice and adding wire drawing. This is Karen’s very favorite thing to do! When learning to “wire draw”, wrong lines are actually good. |
Wire drawing helps you to become a better artist. So, if you struggle with your drawing, this is the class for you! Design tips will be shared, along with color tips. Karen gives lots of individual attention, and believes that painting should be fun and easy.
