Seascapes and Waterways with Liz Haywood-Sullivan

Marshes, beaches, and waterways describe the local landscape of coastal southern New England. In this three-day workshop with locally based internationally recognized artist, Liz Haywood-Sullivan, we will devote one day to each of these topics. Day One will explore the beauty of the marshes. Day Two we go to the beach and play in the waves. Day Three we trace waterways winding through the marshes. We will cover correct drawing, value choices, aerial perspective, sky and water valuework, and how to make underpainting work for you. Each day will start with a demonstration and there will be plenty of individual instruction at your easels.
