new online workshop - atmospheric landscapes with artist Renee Walden

new online workshop - atmospheric landscapes

4 January 2023

Join me and The Hawaii Watercolor Society in this workshop focused on "Atmospheric Landscapes in Pen and Watercolour."

Together we will be painting two different scenes with a focus on giving your paintings a sense of depth and emotion. We'll be covering the theory of aerial perspective, and more importantly storytelling, to invite a viewer right into your painting. As for method - we'll apply watercolour first, then a touch of pen work to finish the painting.

Bookings through the society. Non members are welcome too.
