“Watercolor Unleashed: Painting from Photos” – Virtual Class via Zoom

Dates & Times:  Aug. 23-30th, 2022, 2 Tuesday afternoons, 1-4PM Phoenix time

Medium: Watercolor

Details: The focus of this online Zoom class will be to combine the “reality” of the landscape as seen by the camera with the passion brought to it from memory and imagination. By concentrating on shape and value as the most important of the building blocks of painting, students will use “color-as-value” to stimulate an emotional response from the viewer. Students will learn to use unexpected color combinations in unpredictable ways to convey how they see AND feel about the world. Technique will be studied also, as a necessary component to the “big picture” of landscape painting.

A photo will be provided for students to use for the first class study. Bring reference material for the following class. There will be demonstrations of techniques suitable for the subject matter, exercises, critique and lots of painting time. All levels are welcome and encouraged to attend. Class time will be structured, yet open enough to accommodate the artistic spirit within us all. The only prerequisite is an attitude of joy in the act of painting!

Available – – ONLY 10 spaces maximum!

My Teaching Philosophy

My goal is to individualize instruction as much as possible. I introduce the basics to the beginning student and work with the more advanced student in gaining a more solid knowledge of those same basic techniques, along with the all-important principles and elements of design. I always try to present material in a logical, practical manner, along with a large dose of encouragement with emphasis on motivation and personal taste. In class, beginning painters will work in a structured manner and ALL levels are encouraged to experiment and practice as much as possible in order to build confidence and experience with methods and materials. Workshops generally focus on a method or subject, while weekly classes may offer basic technique or independent projects with guidance as needed and “class projects” as requested. Whatever the venue, my over-riding objective is to support and assist each person in his or her search for individual artistic personality.
