$75.00$130.00

I am excited to be coming to Atlanta and look forward to sketching with this new USK chapter. You don’t have to be an urban sketcher or have attended a USK-Atlanta paint out to attend my workshop. It’s open to all those who endeavor to enjoy sketching outdoors.

I have two workshops allowing you to choose whatever works best for you. One, two or both.

The first workshop held from 9:30am-12:30pm, is tailored for those who’d like to share insights from my practice that have helped me overcome feelings of overwhelm or fear when sketching in public. We will go over some thumb rules of proportion, perspective and color palette. Think of this as a refresher course.

The second workshop held from 1:30pm-4:30pm, on the other hand takes those who would like to explore the topic of direct watercolor but want to share in my ways of controlling watercolor. This class will emphasize direct watercolor in a park/botanical garden setting with a strong lean towards landscapes.

Venue: Public Park in Atlanta <– It will be either Piedmont Park or the Historic Cemetery, I am currently investigating both options and am checking to see no new events are being held at either places for us to have our day there. I will update this listing + those who have enrolled prior when I confirm a location.

Yes!

Street parking available.

WHAT CAN I BRING TO THE WORKSHOP?

For workshop 1: The bare minimum setup would be your regular sketchbook + 2b pencils. If you like to draw with ink pens, bring em. I personally fancy brush pens, so it those are your style, those are welcome too. Your bare minimum watercolor set if you are comfortable with it.

For workshop 2: A sketchbook that can take watercolors (paper 90lb or thicker), your urban sketching watercolor set, ~6 colors are enough, moist cakes/tube pigments, your favorite 2 brushes. I prefer round, round mops but you are welcome to bring in square brushes. Other obvious supplies are palette, container for water, bottle to take away dirty water, kitchen towels for dabbing your brushes, a portable stool to sit on or plastic sheet to lay down on the ground to sit on.

We will be 10(min)-15(max) of us.

No refunds unless instructor cancels the class.

IS PREVIOUS WATERCOLOR EXPERIENCE REQUIRED?

For workshop 2, familiarity with watercolor will increase how much you will enjoy the workshop.

    I am still thinking in terms of values and shades. That’s Uma’s effect on you. Great workshop to bring you up to speed in your fast paced decision making while sketching on location. Something that every Urban Sketcher should aspire to. I believe we all gained a lot from her teaching. I hope to find more opportunities to attend her workshops in the future. Highly recommend.
