Join this watercolor workshop with Margaret McCandless. Bring your willingness to try painting while observing outdoors scenes and creatures, and bring a watercolor paper journal with you. We’ll provide paints, brushes, and a wealth of tips and skills for using these. You need not have any watercolor painting experience.
Plan to think as a citizen scientist, while you build your art skills. Through the centuries, observant people outdoors have built a wealth of knowledge about birds, migration, spider webs, weather, and much more. Some of our online resources today depend upon citizen scientists contributing notes after a walk in nature. We’ll be discussing some of these options, along with ways that we can make watercolor pictures to remind us of details we’ve seen.
Bring a watercolor journal or notebook:
- Choose a notebook size that you like.
- Spiral binding is recommended. Other formats are fine, too.
- Watercolor paper in bookmark sizes will be available at the workshop, for quick technique-samplers.
