Welcome to my workshop in USA!
It is taking place in MISA - Madeline Island School of Art 18-22, June 2017.
During this five day workshop, you will learn how to use the Alla
Prima approach to create expressive works in watercolor. I will
share my knowledge of this classic approach while utilizing contemporary
techniques including wet-on-wet, dry brush, glazing, splashing, masking, and
many others. You will also learn how to create convincing works without
needing advanced drawing skills.
The class schedule will include 2-3 painting demonstrations
per day and opportunities to paint a variety of subjects. You will learn
distinct approaches for florals, landscapes, seascapes, interiors and
portraits. This class will be mainly studio based with some opportunities to
paint en Plein Air throughout the week, using Madeline Island’s amazing
landscapes and seascapes as inspiration.
You can choose to bring two or three of your own
paintings for personal critique, or specific objects of interest to receive
feedback on the right approach to use, and mistakes to avoid when painting the
chosen subject matter. Class will conclude with a critique exhibition of
student and teacher’s works at week’s end.
