This workshop is a perfect opportunity for the
beginner painter as well as the experienced
painter to learn techniques enabling them to
complete successful watercolor paintings.
Carol shares her step-by-step approach To
painting with students of all levels. All
projects include written instructions, a line
drawing and a color photo. Drawing ability is
not necessary, allowing the student to focus
on the mechanics of painting. Carol paints
watercolor with an emphasis on wet into wet
watercolor techniques. Each day of class
will include a separate project with the
expectation of going home with completed
paintings. One day of class will focus on
painting a watercolor batik incorporating
watercolor, rice paper and wax to create an
exciting alternative to traditional watercolor.
There are scholarship opportunities
available, see information at
www.dillmans.com

Quinacridone Rose, Turquoise

you are not afraid to tear up or experiment with. I will have some extras if all your paintings
are gems.
Don’t Panic. I plan to have brushes, boards and other supplies for sale, especially the
supplies that are really necessary for the projects. If you have any questions about what to
bring, please contact me.
