We're excited to welcome Margie Samuels for this IN-PERSON workshop! Do you want to loosen up your watercolor paintings, and at the same time add some pop and sparkle your artwork? Watercolor pouring is your answer! Pouring can give you a underpainting with transparent, transitioning colors. This pouring technique works for all types of paintings (landscapes, still lifes, florals, etc.). Plus, it is appropriate for beginner and well as more advanced painters. Artists in this workshop will be creating a landscape with a colorful, poured underpainting. The landscape photo and a drawing will be provided to participating painters. All supplies included in registration, students will be able to take home their watercolor palettes. ***Please note that scholarships are available for all of our programming.
