    Bright & Bold Blooms led by Annelein Beukenkamp

    Led by Bryan Gallery
    Registration Required     »register now

    This one-day watercolor workshop with instructor Annelein Beukenkamp includes working from a variety of blooms and photographic references (provided) as Annelein guides participants into using the full extent of their color palattes! Brushes will be unleashed to create wet, spontaneous imagery that captures the blossom's essence - and not necessarily an exact reproduction. The workshop will include design elements like size, shape, value, color, line and texture. You will explore negative painting to create foliage and contrasting shapes in your work.  
    This workshop will be held indoors, and artists should be familiar with using watercolors.

    Annelein has been painting playful, bright blooms and teaching others this skill for many years. If you are a watercolorist looking to add a bit of light and whimsey to your work, this is the workshop for you! Sign up now before it fills up!

    Telling a Story in Plein Air Painting led by Charlie Hunter

    Sunday, August 30, 2026 - Sunday, August 30, 2026 10am - 4pm

    An Unique opportunity to paint with Charlie Hunter! Don't miss out!

    Why do we paint what we paint, and how do we choose to tell that story?
    Join us for an intensive one-day workshop with Vermont artist Charlie Hunter where we dive into the language and technique of plein air painting.
    Charlie Hunter is a nationally recognized painter of the post-pastoral American landscape. His distinctive, low-chroma work and superb draftsmanship, heavily reliant on a mastery of values, edges and composition, utilizes a variety of unorthodox techniques and tools that reference both photographic and painterly traditions. This small-group workshop, limited to 12 participants, is intended for those serious about expanding their creative vocabulary and technique. Beginning with a discussion of why we paint, and where we are on our respective journeys, Hunter will then do a live demonstration painting, during which discussion and questions are encouraged. Participants will then work on their own, until reconvening for a group critique.
    The workshop will run from 10am - 4pm (and can go as late as 5pm if needed.)

    ** We expect this workshop to fill quickly! Act quickly!!
