EXPLORING MONET’S GARDEN. In this workshop, students will learn drawing and painting floral landscapes expressively using techniques employed by Claude Monet. Tonja will share photo references shot during her recent time spent at Monet’s garden at Giverny. This workshop would be appropriate for pastel, water-media, acrylic and oil painters. Learn to layer paint to create luminosity and the illusion of light in your floral and landscapes by exploring the garden that inspired a master.
ABSTRACTION TO REALISM: OIL & COLD WAX. Have you considered combining oil paint and cold wax? The addition of cold wax medium into oil paints not only allows you to create beautiful texture while speeding up the dry time of oils, but is a great solution for oil painters who enjoy working realistically while allowing expressive and abstracted elements to be incorporated into the painting. You need not be an experienced oil painter, but a basic understanding of working in oils is important.
Merging Watercolor & Pastel Online ; Dramatic and versatile, chalk pastels can be one of the most beautiful of media. When combined with watercolor it will transform your work. You will find this class a useful bridge to connect these popular mediums. I will help you remove any inhibitions you may have in regard to mixing media, giving you practical insight into both watercolor and pastel. Perfect for beginner and advanced students alike. Full course & semester options available.
