Artist Collaboration Series: 

Spooky Scenes 

on Aquabord and Cradleboard

with Emily Marie

14+

Thursdays, Oct 16th - 23rd

6:00  - 8:00 pm

$115

In this two week workshop, you will explore how watercolors react to different surfaces.  We'll start the workshop by learning how to mount watercolor paper to wooden cradleboards.  Then, we'll paint a full moon scene using watercolors on Aquabord.  Aquabord is a textured clay surface on a hard board.  Watercolor artists love Aquabord for its ability to endlessly lift color, fix mistakes, and layer to your heart's content!  You'll be able to compare the differences in dry times, lifting, and layering between the two surfaces.  Which surface will be your favorite? 


All supplies included in the class fee.  

Ages 14yrs+; anyone under 18 should be accompanied by an adult.
