Create Mixed Media Retreat
I’m teaching 3 workshops: San Diego Watercolor Society 2825 Dewey Road, #105 Watercolor Monotype Exploration
Discover innovative techniques to create botanical grid compositions with hand transferred watercolor monotype. Monotype is an expressive additive or subtractive printing method which creates intriguing textured color fusion shapes. Spend each day printing and painting in watercolor exploring wet into wet approaches. We’ll add additional mixed media layers with dry mediums to exaggerate color intensity and build luminous layers to create a unified and harmonious affect. Pigment characteristics, color theory, composition, and design will also be covered with demos, critiques and individual instruction. This workshop is for all skill levels.
I’m teaching 2 workshops and I’ll be selling my works on Saturday! San Diego Botanic Garden Embrace the day exploring botanical details with watercolor, collage, and ink journaling style. This workshop taught by Helen Shafer Garcia, will focus on combinations of drawing and painting botanical elements with thoughtful descriptive words. We’ll create pockets in the journal of our collaged harvest of dried leaves and other found nature elements. Don’t worry if you’ve never painted or drawn before—this method will strengthen your drawing and painting skills at every level. Discover form and color while developing plant studies and record reflective, descriptive annotations which will provide valuable information about the experience. Tesoro de Corazon
