Traveling Through Watercolors

Traveling Through Watercolors

10 days workshop residency in Naples and Sorrento Coast

6-15 September 2019 

The Watercolor workshop participants will be immersed in study of watercolor in the ideal setting for the medium. Painting fundamentals, technique and color will be explored as well as the study of drawing, specifically how tone, brush stroke and line can convey form, space, light and texture. The course will hold group critiques to provide feedback and discourse on each participants’ works. With just few materials needed for plein air painting various sites can be explored easily. The workshop will also offer optional lectures and presentations about master watercolor artists through history. At the end of the program will be arranged an exhibition in the heart of historical center of Naples, with the artworks made by the participants during the workshop.

All levels are welcome, whether they are beginning artists or very experienced in drawing, sketching and painting. The emphasis in the course is that it is for those that are interested in exploring new places through their art. The art that is produced over the workshop will be a reflection of their experiences in this beautiful place, like a personal journal.
