"Painting Holidays: Gestural Figure and Essential Still Life Watercolour with Wendy Artin"
June 15-22, 2024
 

Join international artist and art educator Wendy Artin at Clos Mirabel in South West France for a week-long painting workshop. During this class, emphasis is put on watercolour techniques and live drawings. Painting instruction will explore the finer details of nature through wet washes, colour, light and form. All levels are welcome. We will spend 5 mornings painting the live model for 2 hours, with poses ranging from 30 seconds to 20 minutes. After personally picking a still life subject from the gardens, we will paint preparatory sketches and work on longer paintings, experimenting with wet on wet, edge control, composition, shadows, and colour. There will be one free day for visiting the surrounding area or painting on one’s own.

"Painting Holidays: Painting the Figure in Nature with Mario Andres Robinson"
July 6-13, 2024
 

Join Mario Andres Robinson at Atelier Clos Mirabel in South West France for a week of painting. This workshop will focus on accurately drawing and painting a portrait outdoors with a live model. Classes will take place in the studio and on location. Students will render the subject in a comprehensive manner, executing a detailed drawing of the model and learning how to employ a monochromatic block-in to properly identify the values of the subject. The class will culminate with a full application of color, using thin glaze layers of watercolor. The objective is to demonstrate how a methodical approach increases the depth and sense of realism in paintings. The tutor will give a demonstration and provide personal instruction.
