Embroidered Watercolor Workshop: Robin and Daffodil

REGISTRATION DEADLINE Friday, April 24, 12:00pm

Spring is upon us and what screams “spring” more than American robins and daffodil blooms. The illustration uses sunshine yellow and rusty red with a new green background. In this class, we will put together the flowing luminescent colors of watercolor with the texture and depth of embroidery. I started using these techniques together after recovering from carpal tunnel. I found that the greater variety of motions helped prevent the onset of my pain. 

Together, we will learn about loose watercolor painting and embroidery on paper by experimenting with each technique before applying it to our final illustration. Join me for a playful time experimenting with combining techniques. You do not need to have experience in either watercolor painting or embroidery, but if you do have experience, you will be able to create an even more customized illustration. We will provide all the materials you need in class: paper, paints and brushes, and embroidery floss and needles.

Ages 16+
