March, 2010 “NO MORE FRAMING UNDER GLASS” Finally, we can eliminate costly framing and create a non-glare surface more desirable to many collectors. There is a new product called Aquabord that you paint on with watercolors and then seal with acrylic spray varnish. I will demonstrate painting and lifting techniques on Aquabord and help you create your own paintings on this surface. Aquabord is available at University Art’s location at 2610 Marconi Avenue at a discount to students who enroll in this class. If you do not live in Sacramento you can find it in most art supply catalogs, under the name “Aquabord”. Thursday, March 18, 2010 1:00 pm – 5:00 pm Sacramento Fine Art Center, 5330-B Gibbons Drive, Carmichael, CA. $45. Saturday, March 20, 2010 1:00 pm – 5:00 pm University Art Center, 2610 Marconi Ave, Sacramento, CA $45. |

| August, 2010 "BEGINNERS' WATERCOLOR WORKSHOP" The goal of this workshop is to get beginners off to a good start with a solid understanding of the medium of watercolor. Students will create their own "How to Watercolor Binder" filled with step-by-step handouts for each technique and their own guided practise on various watercolor papers cut to fit their binders. In addition to practising watercolor techniques, students will learn the properties of watercolor pigments, the difference between color and value, study basic color theory and learn to stretch watercolor paper. Most important they will learn several methods for correcting mistakes. This will be a very practical, down to basics, workshop. Do not expect to create a painting, do expect to learn the importnant things you need to know to paint watercolor paintings on your own. Monday and Tuesday, August 2 and August 3, 2010 9:30 - 4:30 pm University Art Center, 2610 Marconi Avenue, Sacramento CA 2 day workshop $120. plus $25. paper fee |

'AUTUMN LEAVES" Negative painting is really fun. You apply color
to the paper first, then paint the "negative space" around
the leaf shapes to create the leaves. We will use actual leaves as "stencils" to
paint around and create a colorful pile of leaves like the one in
this painting. |
