Workshops with Jeannie McGuire will encourage and challenge artists to communicate a story or feeling in their paintings and create strong figurative works of art in watercolor. Referencing a variety of photographs and snap shots, her workshops focus on absorbing the viewer by developing emotion and movement, intertwining figurative subjects with their background, seeing natural design in reference materials, exploring the impact of cropping and the placement of contrast, and most importantly a purpose for creating art. Through demonstrations, candid conversation and individual time, Jeannie shares her painting style and thoughts as well as the versatility of watercolor when imploying a higher ratio of pigment to water.
