This class is designed for all ages - Kids 8 and up, teen, families and adults. You will create a special hand painted silk scarf. You will learn how to use a liquid resist to create your design on the silk. We will take a short lunch break while the resist dries and then paint the scarf with special silk dyes. We will set the dyes and wash and iron to finish your piece. Your creation is a perfect gift to give a loved one for a special occasion - you can have the whole family participate. More than one person can work on a scarf if it is being made as a gift.  Contact Suzanne if you want to schedule a special birthday celebration workshop with friends.  Contact:  szconnollyhowes@gmail.com  303-499-0635 Information Source: pARTiculars, inc. | eventbrite

• Workshop 3: Summer Trees – For this class we will learn how to paint loose but realistic fully leafed out summer trees. Included in this class will be some instruction on mixing the right colors for trees and tree trunks. These classes have workshop in the title because each class will be delving into learning specific techniques and “mini” because they are only 2-1/2 hours long. The beauty of this format is that you can pick and choose which specific classes that you want to take based on your own interests and schedule. No long-term commitment is required. However, it is highly recommended that you have some previous watercolor experience or have taken a beginning watercolor class before. (See Laurie’s Beginning Watercolor – the Basics.) NOTE: In this class, the intent is to end with at least one completed mini painting but with the understanding that individuals may work at different pace. So, you might not complete an entire painting but will have learned techniques that can be carried forward with future painting endeavors. Instructor: Laurie Adams ( www.loreleiarts.us ) Adults & Teens 13 and over – Minimum 2, maximum 8 Prerequisite: Some previous experience required. For beginning watercolor students who have taken a watercolor class before, existing watercolor artists whose techniques are rusty, or artists who want some continuing instruction or who want to learn new techniques. If you have no experience, I suggest you take a beginning watercolor class prior to this class as some of the techniques may be more difficult without some prior basic watercolor technique knowledge.
