SUMMARY:Painting Nature in Wet Pastel by Avon Waters: Two-Day Workshop
DESCRIPTION: Learn how to use “wet pastels” to make more dynamic pastel paintings and take your soft pastels to new heights as you explore new techniques\, refine those you use and learn how to connect your art to help conservation. \nIndiana artist Avon Waters will be leading a 2-day Fri/Sat workshop in painting nature in wet pastel. Learn the techniques of this luminous art form while appreciating and learning more about nature’s importance and connectivity to all life. \nThis workshop –for beginners to experience pastelists –explores various wet mediums. While many artists already know and use water or alcohol as a medium\, this workshop introduces beginners to both\, but then expands on these basics for intermediate and advanced students. \nLearn how different wet mediums act differently with dry pastel. Avon will introduce wet pastel techniques in simple fast exercises\, and then demo at least one advanced medium technique over the two days. This workshop will also explore the artistic process of CDR –Construction\, Destruction\, and Reconstruction. \n“Dusk on the Flatrock River” \nBring your own soft pastels and see the additional SUPPLY LIST. \nNOTE to NEW PASTEL ARTISTS—If you do not yet have pastels but want to explore them\, You can buy inexpensive soft pastels from various craft stores\, Amazon\, Target\, or Michael’s. Get the largest set you can afford – most should sell sets of 48-72 soft pastels for $30-40. Buy soft pastel\, not oil pastel. These pastels will do all you want until you discover if you like using the medium. \n“Red Maple Blaze” \nNote: The facility has table-top easels to borrow\, but if artists prefer to stand or use their own easels\, they are encouraged to bring them.  \nAvon Waters is a Pastel Society of America juried member\, the lead artist and contact for the Indiana Waterways Art Project\, and is the CEO of the non-profit\, Art Nature Consortium — https://www.artnatureconsortium.org \n\nLearn more about Avon Waters at \n \n\nhttps://www.avonwaters.com\nhttps://www.facebook.com/avonwatersfinearts\nInstagram: @avonwatersarts\n\n\n\nFor more information\, email Avon Waters\,avonwaters@yahoo.com with a subject line of “Wet Pastel Class”\nSee all Ivy Tech CLL classes and register now\nDirect Link to register for the Avon Waters workshop \n\n\nArtists for Climate Awareness is pleased to offer this workshop as part of its series to help artists learn how to use art as a way to bring social awareness to conservation efforts in your communities.\nAs such\, a portion of the workshop fee will go toward a Contributors membership in Artists for Climate Awareness.\n Each participant will be automatically considered a member of Artists for Climate Awareness at the Contributor’s level (equivalent to $35) for one year\, unless declined.

SUMMARY:Painting Deserts in Watercolor: Nancy Davis Metz with Carol Rhodes
DESCRIPTION:Deserts are often overlooked when it comes to changes in climate\, but in fact they are among the most vulnerable places on Earth. Majestic saguaro cacti\, Joshua trees\, and giant sequoia trees are challenged by unusually dry and hot conditions\, increased carbon dioxide\, and invasive plants. Several desert bird species are endangered. \nIn this day-long watercolor workshop\, you will learn how to paint a sunlit desert landscape using a very limited set of colors along with special wet-in-wet and layering techniques. Through the activities you will explore various watercolor properties and how to manipulate them. As you paint\, you will learn how humans are restoring and preserving these important areas of our world and how you can help. \nThe class will be taught both in-person and via Zoom. It is aimed at serving those who are comfortable with beginning watercolor techniques as well as more experienced painters who are interested in expanding their approaches to color management and brushwork. Participants will receive a list of the recommended paints\, along with purchasing options. All participants will provide their own painting supplies (brushes\, palette\, etc.). \nInstructors Nancy Metz and Carol Rhodes will deliver this workshop. \nSee all Ivy Tech CLL classes and register now\nDirect Link to register for “Painting Deserts” workshop \n\nArtists for Climate Awareness is pleased to offer this workshop as part of its series to help artists learn how to use art as a way to bring social awareness to conservation efforts in your communities.\nAs such\, a portion of the workshop fee will go toward a Contributors membership in Artists for Climate Awareness.\n Each participant will be automatically considered a member of Artists for Climate Awareness at the Contributor’s level (equivalent to $35) for one year\, unless declined.
