I am so glad you are joining me on a trip to Sicily for a Watercolor Workshop Adventure! You will learn the basics of watercolor painting for beginner and intermediate levels and paint at some of Sicily’s beautiful sites. Participants will stay at seaside apartments and experience Italian style living. The group will come together with the hostess Paola in her kitchen for breakfast and share meals on site or on excursions to historic and cultural locations. Looking forward to spending a great time together.

Just a reminder please pack your art supply kits. See you in Sicily!

About the Workshop:

Participants will have fun learning to experiment with their own painting styles and techniques in a comfortable, relaxed vacation setting. Clare will conduct watercolor workshops each day as part of daily tours. A tour guide will take the group on daily excursions to cultural and historic sites with time to paint at the locations with Clare.

Clare will teach participants how to approach watercolor painting. She will introduce the language of art and how to apply the elements of art, and the principles of composition and design. She will demonstrate how to set up a watercolor palette with tube paints, explore paint brush techniques, and steps to use basic shapes and form to create individual paintings of sea and landscapes in plein-air, which is painting outdoors on location.
