5 day Workshop
Paint in either Watercolor or Acrylic…..

Location: Cedar community hall
Great design leads to great paintings. Dale will present lectures and demonstrations daily that will start you on the path to finding your own visual language. In this intensive but exciting workshop we will start from the ground up with instruction in drawing for painting, maintaining your own visual inventory through sketching, and working with design principles.
Using the wash on wash technique of transparent watercolour (or acrylic) along with layering and mixing we will find the key to beautiful, luminous paintings. A bonus feature of this class for watercolor painters is the use of opaque watermedia using gesso.
Dale will demonstrate a different design format and subject each day. Paint representationally along with Dale or have him assist you with methods of abstraction on an individual basis. Bring your own reference photos and paint rocky shorelines, waterfalls, mountains, reflections or whatever you prefer. Complete up to 5 paintings during the week!
