Radiant Watercolors & Luminous Drawings
Session Seven: August 11-16

Vessna Scheff
Radiant Watercolors and Luminous Drawings

In this exploratory workshop, we will experiment with intuitive mark-making, movement-inspired activities, blind drawing, and drawing from observation, with the goal of self-expression and developing an understanding of light. Fun and playful approaches will build comfort with drawing and watercolor, reveal tools and techniques for refining work (it is actually possible to “erase” watercolor!), and provide prompts for seeing. This workshop is for beginning-to-advanced students hoping to find enjoyment and ease in mark-making and watercolor painting and/or to enhance their skill in drawing/painting from observation. As an instructor/artist/person who values silliness and play as critical components of grounded artistic living, I look forward to diving in with you.  All levels.
