    Instructor Paul Allen Taylor

    Watercolor Workshop – Paul Allen Taylor

    Sunday October 26th 2025, 9:30-4:30

    Cost $80

    Are you up for a challenge?  This class will use this drawing provided by the instructor for this vignette. “Vignette” means “incomplete” as areas of the paper will remain unpainted. Paul will share his reference briefly to discuss his design. If it is not your habit to make a sketch, this will help you see the benefits of the process. The drawing will be blocked out in pencil followed by the ink line using a wooden match.

    Along with Paul’s guidance, the drawing is created for the afternoon painting session. At 3:30 an evaluation will be held on the day’s work.

    See the supplies list for specific items. Matches and holders will be provided.
