“Design for Success!”
Here is what Alexis says about the workshop
Superb DESIGN is essential in making art that excels! An unremarkable painting can be elevated into one that is powerful and engaging ... with the application of strategic, thoughtful, and dynamic DESIGN. During this workshop, we will focus on creating superior paintings! We will learn the all-important concepts of design and how to utilize them in our paintings, for maximum effect ... to take our paintings to that next level.
We’ll explore a variety of subjects together and see how we can turn them into exciting, emotional, fascinating, and unique works of art – with the right combination of creative DESIGN ... solid drawing, effective painting techniques, and imagination. Each day will start with a lesson and demo, in real time, not pre-recorded. After that will be your time to paint, in your home or studio. While you do that, I will speak, on screen, with each student, each day, one at a time, to look at their works in progress and make lots of helpful suggestions.
Alexis believes in the power of design so strongly that she recently gave up her decades-long devotion to plein air painting to devote herself to studio work, where she could take more time to design her very best paintings! Teaching is one of the most important things she does. She loves to share her passion for art by guiding others to reach their creative goals, and she teaches with enthusiasm, commitment, passion, humor, and kindness. She has taught watercolor for over two decades, from California to the Caribbean.
She has seamlessly adapted her classes to the Zoom platform and believes that her online workshops are as good as, and in many ways better, than in person classes. Honored as one of Watercolor Artist Magazine’s “Ones to Watch,” she is a signature member of the American Watercolor Society, National Watercolor Society, Watercolor Honor Society, Transparent Watercolor Society of America, and others. Her paintings reside in collections throughout the country and overseas, and they can be found in galleries from the Mid-Atlantic to the Virgin Islands.
