This workshop is an intense 3 days of inspiration, hard work and productive learning.
Capture the magic of watercolors in this 3 days painting workshop with Alvaro Castagnet. This is an opportunity to have fun learning from an energetic and colorful master of expressive watercolor. Alvaro begins with philosophical introduction and then follows by
a simple “one go” demonstration.
The demo will focus on bold composition with understanding of the 4 Pillars. You will learn how to make quick decisions and simplify your subject to achieve most impact. We will discuss Color relationships, tonal range, forms & shapes and edges. Participants will then paint until we break for lunch
Alvaro will assist and critique works in progress. Participants are asked to start a second painting for the afternoon session, after Alvaro’s 2nd. Demonstration. Alvaro will supervise participants until 4:30 pm each day.
On the last day, will be the final critique session, where every participant will show the best painting they have produced, and will go home not only feeling great, with their achievement, but realizing how much they have learned after having so much fun, and with a clear understanding of the strength and weakness of their paintings.
