Geoff Allen Watercolor Workshop

Learn the joys of capturing the moment, color and mood of California with award-winning watercolorist, Geoff Allen!  Geoff's workshop will cover the basic watercolor handling techniques that can speed up your process, loosen you up, and increase your success in capturing outdoor scenes.  

There will be daily skill building exercises focusing on controlling paper moisture, mixtures,  and timing. Geoff’s demonstrations will review materials, and illustrate how all these techniques flow together and show students how to “keep it fresh”.

Geoff’s daily demos will cover how to take your inspiration through a process of simplification while enhancing design dynamics, expression and creating atmosphere.  It all starts with practicing watercolor’s quartet of skills; tonalities, shapes, color, and marks.  Geoff will be following up individually with students to reinforce concepts and skills.
