FEARLESS APPROACH TO WATERCOLOR

Antonio Masi, an internationally renowned painter and president recently for 8 years of the American Watercolor Society, is offering a workshop titled "A Fearless Approach to Watercolor." This workshop is designed to help artists of all levels enhance their watercolor techniques, with a particular focus on controlling values, recognizing large masses, and understanding the relationship between color and values.​

The workshop is structured into two segments:​

1. Demonstration Session: In the first half, Antonio Masi will conduct a live demonstration, during which he will discuss his choice of paints, paper, palette, and brushes. He will delve into various watercolor techniques, including brush strokes, glazing, and the use of body color.​
2. Hands-On Painting Session: In the latter half, participants will have the opportunity to apply what they've learned. Antonio will provide personalized, one-on-one guidance to assist each student in discovering and refining their unique artistic voice.​
3. Each Day- He will demo a different image explaining what makes a painting successful.

This comprehensive workshop welcomes artists of all skill levels, from beginners to advanced practitioners, aiming to foster growth and confidence in watercolor painting.​
