Join us online on Saturday, February 8th, from 10am – 12:30pm Pacific for the re-release of Monochromatic Landscapes: Explore the Range of a Single Pigment with Claire Giordano!

In this workshop, Claire Giordano will guide participants through the painting process with step-by-step instructions and tips. We will dive into different watercolor techniques for creating atmospheric skies, simplifying a scene through a sketch, creating a feeling of depth in a landscape, and understanding value!

Together, we will combine these techniques to paint an iconic Pacific Northwest mountain with a single pigment.

We’re excited to bring back a favorite from our 2023 Spring Workshop Series and have Claire for another live session! Register for Live Access by February 7th; register for Recorded Access anytime for the next twelve months. We hope to see you there!
