    Cost $60

    This class will cover the design and creation of a vignette painting in watercolor. The
    vignette is an entertaining way of creating a painting not only for the painter but for
    the viewer. Vignettes are thought to have some sparkle even though they look
    un*nished. There are some basic rules to be applied and an understanding of some
    brushwork, but the overall process is not complicated. Vignettes do not have a
    center of interest so right away we don’t have to worry about what the painting is
    about. With an understanding of texture, color, and value, vignette paintings are
    quite simple.
    In the morning, Paul will explain in detail the important facets of this painting and
    demonstrate the di/erent details to be considered. In the afternoon, the painting
    begins while Paul leads you step by step to completion. Later, a brief evaluation of
    the work done in class takes place.
    This workshop will convert the church painting to a vignette using the principles
    outlined.
