He will show how to prepare a watercolor painting using small tonal sketches.
Each day will start with the detailed demonstration and lesson.
Special attention will be given to the choice of colors and impressionistic style watercolor techniques.
In order to benefit from this workshop, basic knowledge & some previous experience is strongly recommended.

“In my paintings, I would like to express the beauty of landscapes through different light conditions and different approaches to interpretation of color in real life. I would like not to merely pick up the colors from the natural environment but to reinvent them right on my canvas. By using this approach I’m trying to achieve liquid quality of natural light in a landscape or natural setting. In particular, I’m interested in architectural elements and their integration through light conditions.”

Irena will conduct a 1 day workshop at the Plymouth Center for the Arts.
Most often, watercolor is considered a light-to-dark medium. But in this one-day workshop, Irena will show students how to challenge that approach! We will learn how to achieve instant atmosphere in our paintings by establishing the background first, and maximize the value scale by leaving foreground details for last. Glowing watercolors are within reach!
