DAY 1 – WATERCOLOR BATIK
Wax and watercolor – put the two together on textured rice paper and wow! You get a look you cannot achieve any other way. This is not an exact science, so just relax and enjoy the process. Kathie will lead you step-by-step through her process of layering watercolor and wax, teaching all the important skills you need to become an expert. The best way to teach you this technique is to work together on the same project, so the class will be working from a photo she has chosen. If you’ve worked with Kathie before and would like to work on your own photo with Kathie’s help, you can do so. You’ll be excited when you see what this technique can do for your own work! This is a fun class and you’ll be anxious to get home and try it on your own designs. No watercolor skills are necessary. We get a bit messy, but we have fun doing it!
2 workshops together: “Watercolor Batik” and “Acrylic is THE COOLEST MEDIUM” Workshops with award winning artist Kathie George.

| $290.00 – $320.00Day 2 – ACRYLIC IS THE COOLEST MEDIUM
It can be used like watercolor, oil and everything in between. Begin the day by learning to build a beautiful surface! Enjoy experimenting with different texture mediums to create a wonderful ground for our painting. We’ll pour and carve and stamp and scrape till we get a simply scrumptious surface. Then we develop the subject with beautiful transparent glazes and thicker applications, too. With acrylic there are really no mistakes, just a lot of fun as you discover that this is indeed the most forgiving, adaptable medium.
If you’ve wanted to know where acrylic can take you and what it can do for your artwork, this is the class for you. Kathie will lead you step-by-step through the painting process. You can use Kathie’s design or draw your own. You’ll leave class with a completed painting and the skills and confidence to go with it.
