SWAMP PAINTING: Working with Watercolor in Nature

Saturday August 2, 2025  9am - 2pm

$100 / Supplies included and or bring your own

Refine your plein air skills and push your painting practice. Designed for experienced watercolorists, this workshop is a deep dive into painting in the elements—wind, changing light, heat and all. We'll explore strategies for composing quickly and effectively from complex scenes, managing a limited palette, and creating expressive, intentional marks that speak to both place and presence. Painting will take place in downtown Grenada & Chakchiuma Swamp

Key Focus:

• Designing a responsive outdoor painting setup

• Translating natural complexity into dynamic composition

• Versatile brushwork & experimental techniques

• Personal style development through nature study

Supplies include:
