BOTANICAL FIELD JOURNAL STUDIES WITH ANDIE THRAMS
The FIELD JOURNAL IS AN IDEAL TOOL FOR RECORDING WHAT IS SEEN AND FELT
AS SUMMER FADES, and autumn arrives. Each workshop will focus on
different WATERCOLOR TECHNIQUES TO EFFECTIVELY CHRONICLE YOUR GARDEN
EXPERIENCE.
SATURDAY AUGUST 18TH: GARDEN COLOR STUDIES WITH WATERCOLOR We’ll
record careful observations of garden flora COLORS WITHIN THE PAGES OF
OUR FIELD JOURNALS. Step-by-step exercises will build a reference
source for COLOR MIXING AND PAINTING STRATEGIES FOR FUTURE
INSPIRATION. No previous art experience is required.
SUNDAY AUGUST 19TH: BOTANICAL STUDIES WITH WATERCOLOR Building on
Saturday’s COLOR STUDIES, students will learn effective steps to
reveal botanical form and detail using WATERCOLOR, gouache, and
COLORED PENCIL. All will leave inspired to continue exploration in the
JOURNAL OR IN other forms. Saturday’s COLOR STUDIES CLASS OR
PREVIOUS COLOR MIXING EXPERIENCE IS HELPFUL, but not required.
