Painting Impressions with Watercolor ’26
Availability: Spaces Available
Instructor:
Do you paint everything you see, or do you paint what you feel? In this workshop, you’ll begin to see the world through a new lens—learning how to transform everyday reality into expressive, impressionistic paintings that evoke mood and atmosphere. The focus is not on replicating every detail, but on capturing the essence of your subject.
Keiko will guide you from that first spark of inspiration through a process of simplification, leading to a compelling painting rich in composition and meaning. We’ll begin with the fundamentals: getting familiar with
our materials and learning to observe with an artist’s eye.
Key topics covered in this class include:
- Creating a strong preliminary drawing and composition
- Exploring a range of watercolor techniques and brush handling
- Understanding what makes a strong design
- Mastering the relationship of light and dark values
- Balancing planning with intuition
- Learning how to simplify and edit complex visual information
Each day includes a live demonstration by Keiko, packed with helpful tips and insights. Reference photos will be provided for a studio workshop, and there will be ample opportunity for one-on-one guidance, individual critiques, and daily Q&A sessions.
Workshop Schedule:
Sunday Night: Welcome Meet and Greet at 5:30pm
Monday – Friday: 9am – 4pm
