I am super excited to share that Eugen Chisnicean and I will be holding a back to back watercolor workshop on the beautiful island of Mallorca, Spain in October 2023. The workshop is best for intermediate artists and advanced beginners. This is a bonanza which will repeat at their correct prices. This year’s price is introductory price.

You can sign up for Week 1 or for Week 2 or for both weeks!

Week 1 CAPTURING LIGHT with Uma Kelkar (Oct 9 – Oct 13)

We will focus on Cityscapes for 2 days and Landscapes on 2 days. There will be a break in middle of the week for the National Day of Spain.

 

 

 

 

Week 2 LANGUAGE OF LANDSCAPE with Eugen Chisnicean (Oct 16 – 20)

Eugen is master of wet on wet watercolor painting with many calligraphic marks. His calm demeanor is often depicted in the paintings he makes making the most complex scenes tie together in harmony. If you have not seen this Master’s work, you are missing out. Check out his webpage here – https://www.eugenchisnicean.com/ and his portfolio at https://www.eugenchisnicean.com/collections/138774
