Pat Dews is an award-winning artist who works experimentally using aquamedia and collage. She paints the essence of nature with rocks and water as a recurring theme. She is the author of Creative Discoveries in Watermedia and Creative Composition & Design. Pat describes her workshops as exciting and very intense, with an aim of pushing students to think and paint in more abstract ways.

Pat shows you her thinking process as she works on paintings in progress. She discusses concept, design, value, and technique while taking paintings from start to finish. Her critiques enable you to clearly see the directions your paintings can take, and move you to more exciting outcomes. As the same principles apply regardless of your choice of subject matter, this class is for both abstract and representational artists.
