Preregistration is required to attend all classes and workshops at Arlene’s. Space is limited so please register soon. Click the link to register online. Otherwise, please come into the store, at 57 Fuller Rd Albany NY, or call us, at (518) 482-8881, to reserve your space.
Great stories come from the most unexpected places; a walk on a summer night, watching a cool breeze hitting a field of wildflowers in just the right way; a conversation with a stranger on the bus; a game session with old friends; a wash of colors that brings to mind the essence of a character living solely in an artists’ imagination. In this class, makers will learn to use various watercolor techniques, as well as color theory to bring to life the essence of a story they wish to tell. They will be encouraged to experiment with the medium and to try unique and uncharted color combinations. They will then use their ‘findings’ from the watercolor exercise to design and create a character from their own imagination and incorporate the character into their final watercolor painting. This is the perfect workshop for writers, lovers of fantasy, and character art. Supplies are not included in the cost of the workshop.
Please note that our classes are typically held in the lower level of Arlene's. Because access to the lower level is available only by stair, please let us know if using the stairs presents any difficulty for you in advance of the class so we can make alternate arrangements. We want to make sure everyone is able to enjoy and participate in our classes.
