Copy a Master in Watercolor: 1 Session 

Picture
Watercolor by Wendy Soneson

About the instructor: Wendy Soneson has been teaching watercolor at seven locations in the Bay Area for five years, and before that, for 30 years in Boston. She has been the John Singer Sargent guest artist at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, for the last seven years. Her approach is fine arts, as in a university setting, which in the end, she believes, adds much more to one’s life than just a hobby. .  Her last show locally was a one woman show at Oakland City Hall, 2019, with paintings of Oakland in Transition.

Title:   Copy a Master in Watercolor: 1 Session 

Instructor:  Wendy Soneson

Dates:  March 21
             
Day & Time:   Sunday, 1:00 pm – 3:00 pm

Description:   In this workshop we will learn a unique way of copying a painting by the great watercolor master, John Singer Sargent. This will help us focus on shapes, colors, edges, balance of water and paint, and values. Sargent is considered the best watercolorist in the world, due to his innovative approach. Take a look at some of his work on Google Arts and Culture.
​
The class will consist of pre class video, and then during class time, on zoom, a conversation with the group, then a demonstration. After final questions, I will follow up with students individually after they complete assignments.

Please watch these pre-class mini lessons and I will be sending a video for you to watch before class. 

Fee:  $40 Members; $50 Non-members

​Materials:  For art supplies you can order on your own from Suppy List (no substitutions) or I can send you a kit for $65. Check out my website WatercolorWeekly for more. You do not need materials for the class but will want some after to try the exercise. 

Medium:   Watercolor

Notes:  Minimum registration required for workshop to proceed. Open to all artistic levels; 18 years and older.
