Students will start a new technique each day, progressing from a realistic approach to an expressive approach to an abstracted approach. Instructor will provide references, but students will be invited to bring their own if they choose to do so. We will work with three different organic subjects. Instructor will provide 2 demonstrations daily, followed by student painting time and personal help. There will be a critique of progress at the end of each day where students will be invited to share their challenges and their successes, guided by the instructor.

This North Carolina area artist does paintings in watercolor, which appear realistic, but a closer look reveals how the artist incorporates a variety of techniques including salt, scratching, splashing, pouring, and repel to create the finished effect. The artist works primarily from life and her imagination, using photographs only as reference. Suzanne’s passion is aqueous media as an expression of the world around her. She is interested in the forms of nature combined with the structures of man, and the endless variety they present. 

Suzanne Is a serious advocate for watercolor and artists in general. She is Past President of The Transparent Watercolor Society of America, Past President and Founder of the Kendall Arts Guild, Kendall County, Illinois, and Founder and lifetime member of the Antioch Fine Arts Foundation, Antioch, Illinois.
