Watercolor Workshop
This weekend I will have the great joy of attending a watercolor workshop with a fabulous artist, Paul Jackson. My main passion seems to be painting crystal and glass and Paul is a master with the glass and reflections. Was able to go through his book and check out his earlier glass paintings and loved them. His lights and shadows are wonderful and I am going to turn into a giant sponge and soak up everything he throws out. The workshop is being held in our little Noonday community so he will get a dose of East Texas country while he is in our Tyler area. We have some ladies coming down from Dallas and Louisiana and it is a marvelous opportunity to learn when these really accomplished artists do workshops right in your own back yard! Will post my results (if they're good enough) early in the week.

Mollie, I can't wait to see your results. I'm envious, of course but will control my jealousies for I know you will graciously share your "learnings"! I'm so excited for you!
ReplyDeleteHi Mary...we're having such a good workshop. Paul has brought several of his big originals and they are just fabulous. Wish I had some money!!! His layering technique is wonderful, and his explanations are what teaching should all be about. Love it when I understand what my teacher is trying to convey. I won't promise that I'll post my results, but we'll see how things turn out. Ha!
