"Expressive Watercolors Using Wet-On-Wet Technique" with Susan Corser
Saturday, March 21, 2026 -- 9am - 3pm Using wet-on-wet techniques, with florals as our subject, this workshop will encourage us to focus on the more expressive aspects of painting, starting with value sketches to visualize the overall composition. We then begin the painting on heavy watercolor paper, applying a layer of clear water before adding paint to create soft edges for the painting’s major shapes. We gradually add more layers of water and paint to develop the image, adding harder lines where needed to create the desired composition. Other media such as pen and ink, oil pastels, etc., can be added if desired to create texture and interest. Class suitable for beginners as well as more advanced painters.
About Susan:
Susan Corser has been painting and drawing since childhood, focusing on figure drawing in her early years, transitioning to landscapes after moving to Steamboat Springs, Colorado, in 1991. She now splits her time between Steamboat Springs and Denver. Her primary medium is oils, although she also enjoys watercolor and mixed media. Susan enjoys teaching art and has taught private and group lessons in watercolor and mixed media. |

"Back to Childhood: Colored Pencils as a Useful Art Medium & Experience" with Kelly Almer
Saturday, May 16, 2026 -- 9am - 3pm Come and attend the Saturday workshop with Kelly and meet others wanting to know more of this old and basic medium. She will share her world of colored pencils with all participants, whether or not they have attended the April demo. Watch her demonstrate a fun piece, sharing tips and tricks, while working alongside her to create a wonderful small piece.
Colored pencils can be used with other mediums, are extremely versatile, and lovely to work with. This medium allows the artist to achieve fine details and subtleties at their own pace, allowing for a fun creative experience. Walk away with a “pencilbox” full of ideas, techniques, and enthusiasm to work with colored pencils in a whole new way.
Bring to this session:
Any colored pencils you may have and an eraser. Basic paper will be provided but if you have any other “drawing paper” you wish to use, yes, bring it too! Consider bringing a watercolor or collage piece to try adding colored pencils to! |
