The Artistic
Study in Watercolour
with
Dianne Bersea
AFCA
cspwc
September 26-30, 2011
The 'study' frees us from expectation.
We can dive in and have fun! Studies in
watercolour media quickly identify the essence and energy of the image
and give us opportunities to experiment with composition and tonal
range.
Dianne's approach is guaranteed to
enhance your watercolour painting skills, reduce visual clutter and
give your paintings an energetic boost! In a vigorous atmosphere of
demos and hands-on, create quick, loose studies to see colour as tonal
value, plan creative compositions and use large shapes to give
watercolour its freedom. With humour and positive feedback, Dianne
shows how to select elements to build strong watercolour paintings
and, above all, how to have fun and feel good about the process!
Working outside (en plein air) weather permitting or indoors from
still life sets, this is an ideal workshop for the artist who wants to
loosen up and feel more confident with watercolour.
Some
watercolour experience is recommended, but artists of all skill levels
will find this workshop beneficial.
We'll work 'en plein air"
with demonstrations and hands-on to:
- enhance our seeing and
awareness
- simplify the complex visual
environment
- learn techniques to capture
ideas and images on paper with a variety of water media
In the studio with
demonstrations and hands-on to:
- assess and evolve images for
composition and impact
- enlarge, manipulate and
transfer images to another working surface
- address large areas first with
washes or flat areas of color
If weather is unfriendly we'll
work inside from simple still life set-ups
