Beginner Gouache: From Still Life to Plein Air introduces students to the versatility of gouache in a supportive, hands-on two-day workshop with artist Monica Meerwarth Fernsell. Students will explore paint consistency, color mixing, value, layering, opacity, and brushwork before applying these skills to a guided still life painting. On Day Two, the workshop moves outdoors, weather permitting, for a plein air demonstration and guided painting session focused on observing, simplifying, and painting from life. Individual guidance and feedback are provided throughout. No previous experience with gouache or plein air painting is required. Students should bring their own supplies; a materials list will be provided.
