Materials List

We will begin with trees and spend the first morning of the workshop doing studies of tree branches and leaves to understand more clearly how trees grow. We will also look at a few examples of landscape paintings to see how artists depict trees, landscape space, light and weather. Doing these studies will be a time to experiment with some different ways to use watercolor as a medium.

Saturday afternoon and Sunday will be for you to paint your own landscape(s) from a photo or photos of your favorite places. Suggestions: Choose images with a close up tree and a distant view. Beautiful clouds. Sunsets or sunrises. Mountains or hills in the distance. If you’re an experienced watercolor painter, feel free to bring finished landscapes to share with the class.

This workshop is open to all skill levels. Beginners may choose to continue doing studies of the individual parts – of trees, different skies, hills or mountains. Everyone can expect lots of individual attention and instruction about watercolor techniques as well as assistance with the challenges of representing nature.
