Your instructor, Mary Laury, is an accomplished watercolorist and highly esteemedteacher. She encourages all her students to believe they can be successful. Painting isan exciting medium; it flows and moves and does beautiful things. If you have neverpainted in watercolors, we will start at the beginning. If you have painted before, you willpick up some new tips and tricks as well. We all learn together!

Paint flower portraits realistically. You will paint pictures of flowers in detail, but more painterly than a scientific illustration. We won’t count veins, but we will count petals! Painting flowers is a wonderful exercise in observation.

Learn brush stroke and value; white on white flowers; leaves, long and short; iris, narcissus, orchids, tulips, and other spring flowers.

We will paint on smooth paper; Strathmore Series 500, one hundred percent cotton paper, either plate or vellum. This paper can be bought at Artist and Craftsman in Portland in large sheets, which we will cut up.

Bring a #2 round brush and a #6 round brush, pencil, palette, tube watercolors in the 3 primary colors and perhaps a green. Paper towels and water container. And bring a plant or flower specimen with no more than 9 petals. This is a slow and careful process and 9 petals and some leaves is enough happiness for us all.

Escape to a Victorian Inn, the Harbor View House in Prospect Harbor on the coast of Maine, with an intimate group of artist, cooks and creatives! All meals are included inthe workshop fee plus special activities to extend your learning from the day’sworkshops, including a private house concert by Grammy balloted sing-songwriter, storyteller, and author Gordan Ward.
