Join artist Eva Christensen for an intensive two-day workshop exploring personal storytelling through watercolour and gouache. This immersive weekend experience is designed for painters who want to elevate their narrative painting skills and take a personal project from concept through to near-completion (or completion) in a supportive, focused environment.
Through guided instruction, demonstrations, and individualized coaching, you'll work on your own meaningful painting while learning Eva's process for transforming personal photographs into compelling visual narratives.
Core components include:
Addressing common pitfalls when working with watercolour and gouache
Deep-dive techniques for advanced watercolour application
Composition and storytelling strategies for personal narratives
Group and individual critiques with targeted feedback
Exercises to explore and develop your unique painting voice
Real-time demonstrations as Eva paints alongside you
