Miller- Workshop - Painting the Landscapes in Watercolor

Stan Miller, International Watercolor Instructor, will be our teacher for two-day workshops. The first workshop he will be doing portraits and the second Landscapes. Attendees will sign up separately for each day they wish to attend. *Workshops are nonrefundable.

Landscapes will be demonstrated by the instructor. Technique, color, choosing paintable subjects, understanding composition and design will be addressed. Students have the option of working on their own subjects or one provided by the teacher.
If students have questions, they are welcome to email Stan: Stan@stanmiller.net
