The Cultural Arts Alliance of Walton County has announced a line-up of artistic learning at the Bayou Arts Center this month with weekly and special workshops and classes. February’s line-up consists of classes in acrylics, pastels, watercolor and basket weaving. Most of the Alliance’s classes are offered weekly, and some feature guest instructors including Tom Lynch, one of the nation’s premier watercolorists, who will lead a four-day watercolor workshop, February 23 – 26.
Lynch has written seven books, hosted an award-winning PBS TV Art Series and was recently listed as one of the nation’s top 20 teachers by American Artist Magazine. He is currently featured on the new cable TV channel Visual Arts Network (VAN) and on the leading internet art education site ArtAcademyLive.com.
Tom’s workshop, ‘Watercolor Secrets Revealed’, invites students to experience the vast range of flexibility of watercolor in a fun atmosphere that welcomes the advanced beginner, intermediate and advanced painter.
Each day includes demonstration paintings with detailed explanations of the ‘how’ and ‘why’ followed by individual attention so that each student understands and has an example of the day’s objective and a positive critique session. Tom will include tips on photography, on-location painting, matting and salvage techniques for discarded paintings.
