Expressive Creations in Watercolor
with Sterling Edwards
April 2-5, 2012 9-4 pm
$315 full member/ $365 associate/non member
Watercolor expert and renowned teacher, Sterling Edwards, comes to the Artists League April 2-5 to offer his “Expressive Creations in Watercolor” workshop. This workshop designed for the intermediate to advanced watercolorist will focus on landscape, floral and semi-abstract paintings using a multitude of watercolor techniques. He will teach you expressive and creative ways to build strong compositions, use strong shifts in values, and teach the expressive use of color. Even though Sterling uses a predominately transparent palette, all of the techniques taught work with opaque and semi-opaque colors.
Sterling is a member of the American Watercolor Society, Midwest Watercolor Society and the Watercolor Society of North Carolina. In addition to his painting, he is an art juror, accomplished teacher, and workshop instructor traveling throughout the United States. His original watercolors are in galleries and in numerous private and corporate collections throughout the United States and Canada.

Life On Canvas
with Tom Edgerton

Acclaimed portrait artist Tom Edgerton teaches a comprehensive, four-day workshop in the fine art of portraiture. His easy-going, friendly style offers the student a wonderful opportunity to learn how to compose the portrait, light the subject, use various tools, work from a live model, and study a number of approaches to the color palette. Tom will demonstrate techniques, and students will have ample easel time with individual attention. In addition, students will be able to bring a painting for a special critique session.
Tom will be demonstrating in oils, but many of the concepts he teaches are valuable to students working in other media. While he teaches at all skill levels, some working familiarity with your chosen medium is necessary. See his website: www.tomedgerton.com. $60 deposit is due at registration.
