In this 2 day workshop, we explore what it means to find “just the right moment” to apply various watercolor techniques and applications. From preventing and creating blooms to salt application (and many, many more in between), learning to determine correct timing and water management can be the key to unlock watercolor success. Instructor demonstrations and paint along student participation and homework will provide a clear understanding of that ‘Goldilocks moment’ in mastering watercolor control.

Handmade accordion books can be wonderful for travel painting/sketching as well as showcasing and archiving small painted masterpieces.  This one day workshop covers the basics of developing your own sketchbook/folio by cleverly folding a single full sheet of watercolor paper and adding front and back covers.  Cynthia will provide examples, demonstrations and ample time in class to start and finish this fun project.
