Margaret Dwyer's Sketch & Paint Workshop: Island Discoveries

Description

Discover the beauty of Maine one sketch at a time as we combine drawing and watercolor in this relaxed, exploratory workshop. Using watercolor pencils along with a variety of water-soluble drawing materials, you'll learn how to capture the character of rocky shorelines, quiet harbors, forests, wildflowers, and island landscapes. We'll explore simple sketching techniques that help you see shapes, values, and composition without getting bogged down in details.

Watch your drawings come to life as a brush and water transform pencil marks into luminous washes of color. Demonstrations will cover blending, layering, texture, and expressive line work, with plenty of individual guidance throughout the workshop. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced artist looking for new techniques, you'll leave with fresh skills, greater confidence, and a sketchbook full of colorful island discoveries to inspire your future adventures
