Hello
Welcome to the FLOAT-YOUR-PIGMENT Newsletter #568
This year, since January, I have been experimenting with so many different ways of painting, teaching, and using many different types of
products. Some things worked great, some things were just not for me. In today's newsletter, I talk about Holbein Watercolor Pencils and some of the ways I have used them in my watercolor paintings.
This coming Saturday, May 30th, I will be heading to Cedarburg, Wisconsin, to take part in this year's Plein Air Cedarburg Event. See it HERE. I will be there all week, and since I have to come up with quite a few paintings, there will be no Sunday Demo with David and NO Paint-a-long on June 4th. It's just too hard to work on the competition and try to teach my classes at the same time. Watch for the Paint-a-long again in the second week of June.
Weekly Local Classes
Yes CLASS Main Street Gallery,Lake Zurich Wed, May 27th,
9:30am to Noon
Try something new and break from tradition. After you learn the fundamentals, it's a great time to try different things, like a new art material. I tried these pencils, and I think they are great to have in your art
supply arsenal.
Paint-a-long May 28th 6:30pm CST This weeks we are painting a coffee mug with steam and we are gonna try a little bit of watercolor pencil in the details.
