Workshop List
Colors Of The Stone Fall
Skill Level: All
Description (including techniques & materials): In this workshop participants will learn how to
use the wet on wet watercolor technique to paint a soft and moody sky, reminiscent of the
beautiful Sonoran Desert sunsets. Participants will practice the painting techniques and
experiment with various color combinations. I will provide participants with color theory
handouts and a curated paint palette to create a harmonious design. Once they have chosen
the colors for the sky, they will have the option to draw the mountains, Saguaros, and the sun,
or choose an already drawn outline to paint in. Participants will be painting on miniature pieces
of Arches cold press paper, with hand torn deckled edges that invoke a rustic and romantic
feeling. They will start by painting the sky and mountains wet on wet, and work on two
paintings at the same time so that there is adequate time to let these elements dry. Once the
sky and mountains in each painting dries, participants will paint the Saguaros. The last step is
to paint the golden sun with iridescent and highly pigmented watercolors. Everyone will take
two miniature floating frames with them to display their new creations.
