This unique technique, created by artist Robert Kogge, fuses painting and drawing. This workshop will present an alternate approach to traditional painting and drawing by joining the two disciplines into a single process.
Experiment with integrating media, beginning by drawing with graphite on canvas and continuing to develop an image with colored pencil and ink wash to create a composition of your own. The workshop will explore the significance of personalizing one’s use of materials and methods, finding a process to express your own aesthetic sensibilities.
Students can work from reference materials, photographs or still life, take subject matter directly from nature or do a version of something they’ve completed in a different medium. Individual attention will be provided to all.
Material list provided at registration.

A workshop focusing on strategies for salvaging watercolors that turn out not quite as you intended. We’ll look at traditional correction and repair techniques, as well as gouache, watercolor pencils, and oil pastels as possible adjuncts to transparent watercolors.
Participants should bring in some pieces that they consider failures, as well as their watercolor paints, brushes and fresh paper. Prepare to release anxiety about this wonderful medium and its friends.
