Fresh flowers will be the inspiration for the beginning of this workshop, progressing to the portrait in watercolor.  Through a series of fun painting exercises, students will develop a more loose and natural approach—giving them an opportunity to be more spontaneous and expressive in their paintings of flowers and portraits.  A few drawing exercises will be included for the portrait.  Many features will be covered, including children’s portraits.  Some students may find they wish to return to flowers, and that’s fine.  Janet will demonstrate approaches throughout the workshop and work individually with students, as well as class instruction.  A “Show and Tell” session will be included so students can see their progression, as well as their fellow students’.
