THREE-DAY
WATERCOLOUR WORKSHOP "Painting Water” with Ron Hazell,
CSPWC, SCA DATES: Three
consecutive days: Thurs, June 21 –
Sat, June 23, 2018 TIME: 9:30
to 3:30 each day PLACE: St. Margaret of
Scotland Church Hall 3751
Robie St., Halifax (near corner of Robie
& Leeds St., north
end
Halifax) CONTENT: This
workshop will
focus on painting water in all its different states, from dead calm to
breaking
ocean swells against rock cliffs. As with painting most things, it’s
all about
value, that is controlling the light and dark shapes in the
composition. Many
watercolour paintings fail due to poor value control. We will look at
the two
main reasons why controlling value in transparent watercolour is so
challenging. We will explore painting water while controlling value
through
various painting exercises and demonstrations. An overhead mirror will
provide
an unobstructed view of the demos. All levels of experience are
welcome,
including beginners. Workshop
fee is $225. Painting
materials are
not included. To confirm a place in the
workshop, make out a deposit cheque to “Ron Hazell” for $100 and mail
with the
registration form on page 2 to:

samples of Ron’s work,
check out the Gallery page of his web site at www.ronhazell.com.
Click on your “Refresh” button if you have Ron’s site on your
“Favourites”
or “Bookmarked” list. What to Bring Bring
lots of quarter sheets of
140# or 300# watercolour paper. Bring your normal painting supplies and
your
largest brushes. You will also need a sketchbook. Recommended size is
at least
8” x 10”. Bring a soft pencil, 6B or softer (the higher the “B”
numbers, the
softer the lead). Since pencil sketching is a close first cousin of
transparent
watercolour, we will be doing several pencil sketching exercises. Concerning
reference material,
since we are not painting en situ, you may want to bring sketches or
photos
(preferable sketches) that you have taken or done yourself. You are
always
welcome to use my demos for reference material. Don’t
forget a lunch, or you may
want to lunch at Cousin’s Restaurant which is nearby at 3545 Robie St.
(corner
of Robie and Duffus Sts). Cancellation Policy The
$100 registration deposit will be refunded in full if I am notified of
a
cancellation within 30 days of the first day of the workshop, or if you
find
someone to replace you at any time before the workshop. Lighthouse Awareness Art and Craft Show 2018
