Many artists new to watercolor find it not very forgiving and let’s face it – down right frustrating! In this workshop you will discover tips and techniques to loosen up and how pastels can be just the tool to save your not-so-masterful masterpiece. Dramatic and versatile, chalk pastels can be one of the most beautiful of media. When combined with watercolor it transforms your work.
Tonja will help you remove any inhibitions you may have in regard to mixing media, giving you practical insight into both watercolor and pastel. Through the use of your photos, still life, live gestural drawing, demonstrations and critique you will learn basic compositional concepts, how to best translate your reference into a drawing and more! You will be encouraged and equipped to use this new technique with confidence, thereby adding a useful tool to your toolbox, and having fun in the process! For beginning and advanced students alike.

BOLD BRUSH!
TEXTURAL ABSTRACTION & ACRYLIC APPLICATION
with TONJA SELL
March 20 and 21, 2019
Green Valley, Arizona ​
10:00 AM – 4:00 PM
Green Valley Community Performance & Arts Center
This class is for beginning to advanced students who are interested in boldly exploring mixed media acrylic techniques and texture on a large format. In this workshop, you will learn to add interest and life to your acrylic work.
We’ll explore many different acrylic mediums and their potential applications to create exciting, textural, interesting abstract paintings. We will combine acrylic mediums while exploring ways to incorporate elements of form, pattern & strong design. Students may choose to treat these as underpaintings, adding elements of realism to them or allow them to remain abstract. This is a high energy, fun, experimental class.
