March 13-15, 2009

Work with powerful shapes, be introduced to other watercolour media and walk through a simple layered image -- working with loose washes from foreground to background and vice versa. A demonstration of how to use photographic reference for inspired watercolours will also be included.

At least one day will be outdoors on the beautiful beaches of Rebecca Spit. Ask questions, let go and practice with helpful guidance from Dianne. Dianne's gentle instruction will bring you up to speed with fun exercises, easy techniques, good humour and entertaining demonstrations. This is the workshop for anyone who is hesitating to get the brushes moving, whether a beginner or a lapsed watercolourist!

Price:  $225 includes 2 days instruction, lunch and unlimited studio time. Class starts Friday night with demo and reception, continues Saturday 9 AM-4 PM and Sunday 9 AM until noon--so people can get home on the ferry!
