Registration is now open for World-Class artist and Awards Winners Kathie George’s combination watercolor-batik and watercolor-media workshop in Degallery from March 18-20.
George teaches workshops all across the country, as well as conducting international destination workshops in Italy, France, and Spain. Her work is primarily water media and collage, but she is best known for her “watercolor batik.”
“Her batiking process is an exciting one, building layer upon layer of wax and color on Japanese Ginwashi rice paper as the painting progresses,” a spokesperson said. Other mediums to be examined will be the use of Geli Plates to “pull” prints and create collages, as well as creating watercolors through the use of texturizing and stenciling with overlays using rich accents or pastel pencils.
All levels of painters, beginner to advanced, are encouraged to join this workshop which will be taught in a step-by-step manner.
A list of general supplies will be provided upon registration. George will also provide palettes of watercolor paint at a minimal cost to those who are new to the medium but still wish to learn the process.
The basic cost is $320 for the three-day workshop.
