SUMMARY:Fall Workshop\, Quick Sketch Watercolor Portraits with Pam Wenger
DESCRIPTION:We had a great three days! Here is a photo of the group showing their quick sketch portraits. Such a good time\, and so inspiring! \nThis was the Registration Form! \nREGISTRATION FORM\, Pam Wenger WORKSHOP \nOctober 18 – 20\, 2021\, 9:30 am – 3:30pm. \nPainting portraits in watercolor can seem like a daunting task\, but many of us  can’t resist the urge to try it. We may have a loved one who we’d like to paint or  we may simply be drawn to the challenge of capturing an interesting character on  paper. It’s so easy to “tighten up” our portrait paintings because of our focus on  “getting it right”. Painting the “quick sketch” portraits focuses on loosening up that  process and working to achieve a more relaxed look that highlights the beauty  and freshness of the watercolor medium.  \nAbout Pam Wenger \nI can’t remember a time when I didn’t love art. Many of my best childhood memories revolve around art projects – either school projects…my own…or assignments my dad was always coming up with for me to do. When I became an elementary teacher there were plenty of outlets for creativity\, but it wasn’t until I retired in 2012 that I began to explore painting. I figured I’d try watercolor first because it would be easier and cheaper than oils (both incorrect assumptions!).  \nI’m having a fantastic time exploring all types of subject matter\, but I’m drawn to portraits and figurative work. I’d taken some art classes in college and some classes at our local art association. I’ve also had the privilege of working with portrait artist\, Ted Nuttall\, and of attending sessions with Charles Reid. Both of these artists have had a huge influence on me. I’m also fortunate to count many amazing local artists among my friends. They keep me constantly inspired and challenged to grow as an artist. \nMy portrait paintings are my real love – it’s hard to explain the excitement of trying to connect with the essence of a person through their expression…their pose…their placement in the composition.  When I feel my relationship to my subject matter begin to click in the early stages of a painting\, it’s like the beginning of a friendship – it begins to evolve and take on a life of its own. (Of course – there are times when it just doesn’t work out\, either!) Pam’s Website
