with Marsha Connell and Sally Baker 

Saturday&Sunday November 8&9, 2014, 9:30am-3:30pm

Pepperwood Preserve, Santa Rosa, CA

Two painter friends
One known for expressive “painterly” landscapes, one for elegantly rendered still lifes, both passionate about color, offer their unique weekend of watercolor exploration.

You’ll explore skills including
Painting soft-edged wet-in-wet forms, building images by layering marks and shapes, painting seamless transparent washes as a meditative practice, and delineating sharply focused objects.

Approaches
From abstract to realist, from spontaneous space-shaping with a brush to methodical color-forming based on careful drawing.

Your instructors
bring many years of painting and classroom experience to guide you—Marsha at Santa Rosa Junior College and Sally at Healdsburg High School, as well as workshops and classes for students and teachers across the country.

Visit Sally and Marsha during Sonoma County Art Trails Open Studios, October 11 & 12, 18 & 19, 2014. View our paintings year round by appointment, at our studios, and at Art Trails Gallery at Corrick’s  637 4th Street, Santa Rosa, CA

Participants of diverse backgrounds are welcome.
Class is structured around group exercises and individual pursuits, both indoors and in the beautiful Pepperwood landscape. Beginners will find guidance for basic exploration. Experienced painters and repeat students will find support to develop technique and personal expression.
Materials
Use what you already own or consult our list, sent upon registration. Snacks provided. Please bring your lunch.

Sign up early!
Workshop is limited to 25 participants.
Fee: $195. Complete registration using form below. Mail checks to Marsha Connell, 2180 Beverly Way, Santa Rosa, CA 95404 or Sally Baker, My Daughter the Framer, 637 4th Street, Santa Rosa, CA 95404. You may phone in credit card numbers or ask questions of Sally 707-829-0396, or Marsha 707-527-7754.

GESTURE and STILLNESS: 
Watercolor Workshop
with Marsha Connell and Sally Baker

November 2 & 3, 2013, 9:30am-3:30pm
Pepperwood Preserve,
Santa Rosa, CA

Two painter friends, one known for expressive “painterly” landscapes, one for elegantly rendered still lifes, both passionate about color, offer a unique weekend of watercolor exploration.

Visit Sally http://www.sallybaker.com/ and
Marsha http://www.marshaconnell.com online and
during Open Studios October 12, 13, 19, 20
http://www.artrails.org

Explore skills including:
soft-edged wet-in-wet forms, layering marks and shapes, painting seamless transparent washes as meditative practice, and delineating sharply focused objects. Approaches: abstract to realist, spontaneous to methodical.

Your instructors bring many years of painting and classroom experience to guide you—Marsha at Santa Rosa Junior College and Sally at Healdsburg High School, as well as workshops and classes for students and teachers across the country.

The focus is teaching watercolor skills in the context of the special Pepperwood environment. Pepperwood can speak through the artist’s brush and paint, and get inside the painter, through interaction with the landscape and its smaller forms, ie a tabletop landscape or still life. We are the teachers; Pepperwood is our muse. We will be teaching observation, technique and expression, and hope to inspire both artist and naturalist in each person. 

Participants of diverse backgrounds are welcome! Class is structured around group exercises and individual pursuits. Beginners will find guidance for basic exploration. Experienced painters will find support to develop technique and expression.

Materials: Use what you already own or consult our list, sent upon registration. Snacks provided. Please bring your lunch.

Sign up early! Workshop limited to 25 participants. Complete registration, including $195 fee, by mail or email to marsha@marshaconnell.com or knsbaker@yahoo.com

Mail checks to Marsha Connell, 2180 Beverly Way, Santa Rosa, CA 95404 or Sally Baker, My Daughter the Framer, 637 4th Street, Santa Rosa, CA 95404. Phone in credit cards or ask questions of Sally 707-829-0396, or
