Workshop Description:
"Bringing Energy and Emotion to Your Watercolors Using Yupo Paper"
Many artists struggle to bring an emotional element to their paintings. With a better understanding of how to approach the non-traditional surface of synthetic paper, Alonzo will help artists abandon some control to achieve exciting and dynamic results. In this workshop students will learn how to develop an initial sketch focused heavily on design and composition, which will lay the groundwork for the final, completed painting.
If you've ever wanted to add excitement to your watercolors, or if you want to learn to master this elusive surface, this workshop is for you!
