Painting NightScapes Plein Air - The Hunter's Moon
November 8 − 10, 2011
Tues: 1 − 4 pm
Wed and Thurs 4:30 − 7:30 pm
Tues: 1 − 4 pm
Wed and Thurs 4:30 − 7:30 pm
Do you love looking at the night sky during a full moon, the reflections of moonlight on the water and feeling the magic of the moment? Do you long to capture the scene with watercolors and you have put this adventure on your bucket list?
Here's your chance! Tic this item off your list with the Full Hunter's Moon. It will be the start of something you'll want to do over and over just for the sheer joy of it! ...Kind of like the Lay's potato chip challenge... "Bet you can't eat just one." Over 20 MoonScapes later, Pam knows well 'just one' doesn't sooth the cravings!
Day One: In a studio session at CAS, learn about color choices and practice watercolor mixing both on a palette and paper, aerial perspective, cloud/sky painting techniques, water reflection techniques and the use of mixed media to enhance watercolor sketches. Practice on hot and cold press papers using watercolor as both your sketching and painting medium. The objective is to learn how to put paint on your paper quickly and effectively, enabling you to capture the moment as you see it. Pam will demonstrate her plein air setups and you'll be able to decide what works for you.
Days Two & Three: On location in Beaufort's Waterfront Park, putting all you've learned into practice. The first evening is a dress rehearsal, if you will, learning how to work on your lap and capturing your chosen scene. If the weather gives us total cloud coverage... not to worry. The beauty of the early evening and the reflections of lights on the water will still be there.

"Class was so much fun! I am really glad I took it and “caught” your inspiration for the medium and the concept. Today we discovered a great horned owl in a tree in our yard, sitting on a nest – so I did a journal page of her!" L. Smith

"What a wonderful class, the time really flew by and I learned so much about the watercolor pencil technique. Starting this afternoon my journal will have color pictures and it will be interesting to see how I grow." B. Wiener

"You are such a great teacher. All of your advice and your grand experience made this workshop so special. I learned a lot during these 3 days and today I feel really motivated to draw and paint. In fact my new resolution is: to practice a little bit every day in order to make some progress. I thought about this may times but today it’s time to do it!!!!!!" C. McDaniel

"I enjoyed the workshop SO much. I am still struggling, but will not give up. Your work is so inspiring. Thank you for your patience and all those great tips." H. Selva
"I can't tell you how much I enjoyed your journaling workshop. I can't wait to fill my pages, and complete my garden journal with things from my own garden. It was such a wonderful respite from my daily grinds, and I hope to develop the habit of at least sketching quickly the things that catch my eye. I think it will definitely help me relax." F. Ruffalo
