Sunday Afternoon Workshops with Marion Anderson - 2010


Thats One Big Iris - Sorry Full
Date: Sunday March 14, 2010
Time: 1:00 – 3:30 pm

Description - Celebrate the arrival of spring with a large scale rendition of a perennial iris. Start by tracing a large close up drawing of a single iris (provided by the instructor) on a full sheet of Arches 140lb cold press paper. You will then cover these lines with a fine line of latex paint using a needlenosed applicator provided. After a demonstration of the wet on wet method, you will work up the flower and background to create a showpiece floral painting. At 3:30 we move into the dining room to enjoy pretty treats with a variety of cool whites to celebrate the arrival of Spring!

This one-day class is designed as an introduction to the techniques of Vignette painting; using the whites of the page to tell the story. Bring your regular painting gear and be prepared to work outdoors. Bring small pieces of inexpensive watercolour paper for your rough work and two 10” x 14” sheets of 140lb. cold press Arches watercolour paper.

By the end of the day you may decide to continue studying this technique. If you have already taken my Vignette class, please join us to brush up on some of your skills.


Architectural Details in Watercolour

Time: 9:00am - Noon
Cost: $185.00
Limit: 8 students

Bring photos of the architectural highlights spotted on your latest trip, close ups of your own home, and/or snaps of the quaint cottages of Southampton. We will be using a variety of mediums with watercolour to capture the windows, doorways, and other details of the buildings. Demonstrations on specific techniques with emphasis on textures will lead to small paintings of architectural details. You may want to purchase some of these materials or colours.
Note: For painters with “some” experience.


Watercolour Vignettes
Dates: July 26-30
Time: 9:00 - Noon
Cost: $185.00
Limit: 8 Students

Do you admire the watercolour painting style of Charles Reid and Judi Whitton? This class looks at the drawing technique, palette and brush stroke used by these masters while creating vignette style pieces. The entire class is all about using the white of the paper to define the shape. This concept will be applied to a floral, a still life, a landscape with people, and marsh scenes. You may want to purchase these colours or add "some" of them to your palette. This is not necessary.
Note: For painters with "some" experience.
