Donna Zagotta "Adding the You Factor to Your Paintings"
The
theme of this workshop is: Make your paintings more personal and
creative by plugging your subjects into design. Donna will demonstrate
and discuss methods and ideas that will help you turn ordinary subjects
into creative and imaginative paintings.
We will focus on composition,
color, and a personal and creative use of the elements and principles
of design.
All levels are welcome and this workshop is open to
all watermedia. Donna will be using watercolor and white gouache in her
classroom demonstrations. Students will work from their own reference
materials (photos, sketches, etc.) and can bring paintings in progress
to work on or begin new paintings in class.
Supply List
• A few black markers in various tip widths
• 9x12 pad art quality tracing paper (Canson brand is good)
• Sketch paper
• Your usual supplies: sketchbook, paints, brushes, palette, papers, support boards, etc.
•
Reference photos (only those you’ve taken yourself), sketches, or still
life set ups - for paintings to be done in class
•
I will be doing a demo on adding body-color to watercolors. If you want
to experiment with opaque watercolor, you will need a tube of Winsor
& Newton Permanent White Designers Gouache and a hot press paper
like Lana Hot Press 140 lb. or 300 lb., or Crescent #115 HP watercolor
board (I use the watercolor board). For this technique you will also
need a variety of flat “stiff-ish” brushes – not as soft as sable but
not as stiff as oil painting bristle brushes.
