FREE WATERCOLOR MINI-WORKSHOP

CHEYENNE COUNTY ART GUILD OFFERS FREE WATERCOLOR MINI-WORKSHOP

The Cheyenne County Art Guild is presenting a free mini-workshop on mixing grays and on color using watercolor paints on Monday, November 10, 2014 from 5:15 to 6:45 PM at the new gallery, Art at Lodgepole Creek, located at 940 10th Ave. (formally The Book Corner) in Sidney, NE.  

Instruction in how to mix grays in watercolor with true complementary colors will be taught by Tish Treinen.  She will talk about the color wheel and how using neutrals will help the color in your paintings sing!   This mini-workshop is suited for the person who has always wanted to learn how to paint as well as for the accomplished artist.  

For the mini-workshop, please bring watercolor paper, a water container, brushes, paper towels, and red, blue, and yellow watercolor paints.  If an attendee doesn't have these materials and watercolor paints, some will be provided.  Art at Lodgepole Creek will be open at 4:30 PM and artists are welcome to bring their artworks in progress and draw or paint during this time.  The free mini-workshop will begin at 5:15 PM and will be followed by the Cheyenne County Art Guild meeting at 7 PM which will also have a short watercolor painting lesson after the meeting.  Anyone interested in art is welcome to attend all events.
