The Artful Life Helena workshop April 28 - 30, 2017.
A Watercolor Workshop & Sunday Lunch with Doug Turman & Mary Lee Larison
Day 1 – Friday April 28th, 6:30 – 8 pm
Introduction to the workshop, with libations and appetizers.
Watercolor painting is basically very simple - paint, water & paper. Easy to start, difficult to master. The challenge is part of the enjoyment. You will do fine, especially if you are a total beginner. All abilities are welcome and encouraged to attend.
For more advanced painters, your issues are almost 80% psychological in my experience.
“I want to loosen up” is a common goal. This usually requires looking at some work habits that may over time have become more limiting than productive. The length of the workshop will allow enough time to give these issues the personal attention they require.
