WATERCOLOR CAMP
WITH MARSHA REEVES
Come and learn watercolor or improve your skills in a friendly, supportive environment. Let’s play and have fun with the medium while gaining confidence creating simple paintings. Have you always wanted to learn watercolor, or have been painting for a while but not satisfied with the results? This watercolor class is for YOU!
I like to break teaching into small bites: a short demo followed by guided practice, leading to the next demo and next individual practice. Each group of learners is different, so as I get to know your needs, I will modify accordingly.
Lesson Topics: Let Watercolor be watercolor, Learn/Improve your brushwork, Explore fun and simple ways to depict features in landscape and still life and Get the most out of your colors and paper

Resin Art Workshop
With Joe Lindley
If you’ve ever wondered how to create glass-like resin finishes on paintings or the ultra-colorful resin art you see in coasters and resin objects, this workshop is for you. You will learn how to do this and complete your own creations in resin to take home with you. I’ve been finishing my wife’s paintings with resin for more than 10 years, so will be passing on how to do it, and get quality results.
RESIN FINISHES: I will provide an unfinished Mini Print for you (a 5”x5” art print mounted on an art board) and, step by step, coach you through sealing and pouring on a beautiful 1/8” thick resin finish.
RESIN INKS AND ADDITIVES: You will experience the exciting world of resin art creation with alcohol inks, pigments and dyes. This will be hands-on experimentation, using free-pours and silicon molds to learn the different characteristics and visual enhancements these additives provide. It is addictive!
To give your art pieces time to cure we’ll meet back at HCAF a couple of days after the workshop so you can pick them up. I’ll ship them to you if you don’t live in the area.
Please bring an apron to protect your clothing and (if possible) a smart phone to keep track of curing times.
