This workshop immerses students in the art of watercolor painting, inspired by the stunning landscapes of Northern Michigan. Students will learn foundational techniques like washes, layering, and wet-on-wet, exploring the vibrant hues of the region’s diverse palette. They’ll develop keen observation skills, capturing the essence of Lake Michigan’s blues, the lush greens of forests, and the intricate details that define the area’s beauty. The culmination of this journey will be a series of watercolor paintings, bound into a unique, natural book.
