About this Event

Capture the calm beauty of a lavender field while building essential watercolor skills. In this workshop, you’ll paint a simple landscape while exploring how to create depth through layering and softness. You’ll work with colour variation—purples, greens, and neutrals—and learn how to suggest detail without overworking your painting, allowing the medium to do more of the work for you.

This workshop emphasizes softness and flow, helping you approach landscapes in a more relaxed and simplified way. By the end, you’ll feel more confident painting landscapes, have a stronger understanding of depth and distance, and leave with a calm, atmospheric piece that reflects both technique and mood.



About the Instructor

Diana Quilarque is a dedicated visual artist with over 26 years of experience in oil and watercolor painting. Originally from Venezuela, she developed a deep appreciation for realism through detailed landscapes, still life, and portraits. After a 20-year hiatus, she rekindled her passion for painting, studying under renowned artist Lorne Winters from 2017 to 2023. During this time, she refined her techniques and expanded her artistic vision.

Drawn to watercolor’s fluidity and expressive nature, Diana embraced the medium, allowing her to capture light, movement, and emotion in ways oil painting could not. She has exhibited her work in local art collectives and has contributed to multiple charity auctions. Passionate about teaching, she shares her expertise through workshops, guiding students of all levels to develop their skills and artistic voices. Diana believes art is a transformative experience—one that fosters creativity, mindfulness, and connection.
