WATERCOLORS - FLOWERS
Fresh flowers in the studio will serve as the inspiration for the start of this dynamic workshop. Janet will guide students through a series of playful and expressive exercises designed to capture the essence of flowers in a loose, intuitive style. You'll explore the unique character of individual blooms, discover unexpected color combinations, and experiment with techniques that let watercolor lead the way.
Throughout the workshop, Janet will offer live demonstrations and personalized guidance, encouraging participants to embrace spontaneity and develop confidence in their own creative voice. Emphasis will be placed on preserving the white of the paper, avoiding muddy colors, and working with intuitive composition and color choices.
In addition to demos and one-on-one instruction, students will enjoy a fun and supportive “Show and Tell” session—an opportunity to share and celebrate the work created during class.

WATERCOLORS - HEAD & FIGURE
Supply List
This engaging and energetic workshop is open to artists of all levels and is designed to help you approach the head and figure with greater spontaneity, intuition, and expressive freedom. Whether you're new to portraiture or looking to deepen your skills, you’ll gain the confidence to bring life and personality into your work.
The class includes a dynamic mix of demonstrations, instruction, individual guidance, “show and tell,” and a variety of fun, hands-on exercises. You'll explore unique approaches to color application, translucent flesh tones, facial features, and the expressive qualities of children and figures.
Special demonstrations will focus on capturing shadow shapes and creating the illusion of three-dimensional form. Help is always available for those just starting out, and Janet will provide drawing aids to support students new to painting people.
You’ll have the opportunity to work from your own photographs or choose from Janet’s collection. The goal is to learn how to truly “see” your subject in new ways—bringing energy, interpretation, and authenticity to every portrait and figure you paint.
No fear—just paint!
