Course Description

In this three day workshop we will all work together on the same two paintings to explore the techniques described in Nita Engle’s book “How to Make a Watercolor Paint Itself” Students will learn and practice the techniques in order to plan and execute landscape paintings utilizing them. Small pieces will be done as well and participants are welcome to bring their own ideas for advice in planning a future work.
