Two workshops will be presented at BCHS on the afternoon of the monthly meeting. The artist paints from the reference photo, discusses process, shares information, and demonstrates techniques. The artist also provides feedback and instruction as participants paint. Registration for the live workshops is limited to 20 due to seating in the BCHS classroom. Workshops will begin at 1:30 pm and end before 4:30 pm. A materials list and additional information will be provided to registrants ahead of the workshop.
• Live workshops TBA
The Program Committee is working hard to create opportunities for our HCWS members to stay connected and continue to enjoy online workshops during 2026.
Online workshops are presented as 90 - 120 minute recordings viewable using a link(s) that will be provided to registrants. The artist paints from the reference photo, discusses process, shares information, and demonstrates techniques. Depending on the artist's preference, there may be a single video recording or multiple shorter recordings. Each workshop will be visible for approximately two weeks or longer for creating paintings to submit for critique. Participants are encouraged to submit a photo of their paintings to be critiqued by the workshop artist in a recorded asynchronous critique session. A recording of the critique session will be provided to all participants, and it will remain viewable for approximately one month.
• Online workshops TBA
Members are able to sign up and pay for each workshop individually or all of them at once. Our program committee works diligently to have demos and workshops on a variety of watermedia.
