Basic Drawing and Introduction to Watercolor

Calypso Moon Studio

Saturday October 9, 2010
9:00am-Noon

Learn to draw, using a basic “vocabulary” of lines and shapes. Then experiment with watercolor, which is essentially a drawing medium. From small sketches and doodles to larger works based on observation or preliminary sketching, participants will explore ways to record the world around them and the dreams within them.
Materials can be purchased at class as needed--$5 will get you started—and bring whatever drawing and watercolor materials you already have.
Instructor: Sallie Wolf
Artist and writer Sallie Wolf is an avid journal keeper. She creates panoramic watercolor and mixed media landscapes in her studio, Calypso Moon.
