SUMMARY:Watercolor Batik One-Day Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Sunday\, September 21st from 9:00AM-4:00PM \nNOTE: This workshop was originally listed to run 6/22/25\, but was rescheduled to 9/21/25. \nBatik is a wax-resistant dyeing technique with a rich and extensive history\, tracing back thousands of years and originating in Java\, Indonesia. While batik on fabric is the most familiar and practiced art form\, a lesser known technique involves utilizing the batik practice with Japanese rice paper. \nGuided by multimedia artist Jeanne Lally\, students first create a small “practice” piece to familiarize themselves with the basic skills and materials. Next\, students will choose an image and then trace their designs onto rice paper\, alternating between applying wax and watercolor paint\, then finally removing the wax to reveal a rich\, luminous painting. No previous painting or batik experience is required. \n$99 workshop fee does not include materials. The $20 materials kit can be purchased from the instructor at the beginning of the workshop. \nNOTE: This class can be messy; students are encouraged to wear play clothing or an apron. \nWe will have an hour break for lunch midday. The studio will be closed during this break\, but there are nearby parks where you can eat lunch if you brought your own\, or you can check out one of the local restaurants in the area. \n \n  \n  \n\nAbout the instructor: A lifelong multimedia artist\, Jeanne Lally has studied under various artists and delved into many art mediums throughout her life. She is most influenced by her mother\, Barbara Lally\, herself a self-taught and very accomplished artist. The list of art mediums they have both studied/produced is quite long\, including but not limited to enamel on copper\, watercolor\, oil painting\, pastel\, shibori\, rug hooking\, embroidery\, pysanky and batik. After learning watercolor batik on rice paper paper\, Jeanne has created many original paintings and also sells cards and prints of her work. You can view many of her paintings on Instagram @oceanartist8. \n  \nClick here to view our cancellation policy.

SUMMARY:Use Color to Conjure Mood One-Day Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday\, August 20th from 10AM-5PM. Part of the Plein Air Art Festival. \nLearn how to utilize color harmonies to create mood in your plein air paintings with artist Catherine Bickford. \nMystery is one of the most important aspects of any painting and color is often the easiest way to create it. Color can translate your areas of interest to the viewer directly. It is common to make the mistake of painting right over the best color compositions in an effort to “finish” the painting. In this class we will slow down\, stay loose\, and use color with intention and to create dramatic results. \nColor mixing is an enjoyable process and a skill that requires practice. In this class we will learn how to use six basic colors (Cadmium Red\, Quinacidrone Magenta\, Cadmium Yellow Medium\, Cadmium Yellow Light\, Phthalo Blue\, Ultramarine Blue and Titanium White) to create almost any color. \nThe focus will be on learning complementary and harmonious color schemes. Mystery is the most important aspect of any painting and color is often the easiest waya to create it. Color can translate your areas of interest to the viewer directly and we often paint right over the best color compositions. In this class we will slow down and use color with more intention and to more dramatic result. \nPlease bring your materials\, as well as your easel set up for painting outside. If you do not have the materials from the list below\, just bring what you have. If you prefer to work with oil\, that is fine\, too. I personally work with an acrylic ground and oil on top. \nMeet at Artascope Studios in Yarmouth at 9:45AM \nThere will be a lunch break from 1pm-2pm. You can bring your own lunch or check out one of the local restaurants in Yarmouth. \nWorkshop fee: $149.\n \n  \n  \n\nMaterials List:\nHeavy Body Acrylic Paint Tubes (“Basics” Brand by Liquitex) \nTitanium White \nUltramarine Blue \nCadmium Yellow Medium \nCadmium Red Medium \nCadmium Yellow Light \nQuinacridone Magenta \nPhthalocyanine “Phthalo” Blue \nYou will need a medium to large jar of Acrylic Paint Medium in a Matte Finish \nGray Scale & Value Finder (The Color Wheel Company) \nColor Wheel \nPaper Towels \nCanvases 9 x 12 or larger is the best for this class. \nVine Charcoal for drawing on canvas. It’s VERY important that you purchase VINE CHARCOAL\, it’s softer and easier to erase than regular charcoal. \nMetal Palette knife \nStrathmore Palette Paper Pad to mix paint on 12″x16” (Big size is better for color mixing) \nBrushes (2 or 3 of each size) \nFlat Brush 1/2″ or larger (for Acrylic Paint) \nBright 1/2″ or larger (for Acrylic Paint) \nFlat Brush 1/4″ (for Acrylic Paint) \nSmall Round Size 4 or Smaller (for Acrylic Paint) \nHere are a few physical stores in our area (Ask for Student Discount 10% off): \nArtist & Craftsmen: 540 Deering Avenue\, Ptld\, ME \nArt Mart: 517 Congress Street\, Portland\, ME \nMichaels: 490 Payne Road\, Scarborough\, ME \nOnline Stores Include: \nDick Blick www.dickblick.com \nCheap Joes www.cheapjoes.com \n\nAbout the instructor: Catherine Bickford
