Watercolor Portrait Painting Workshop

WATERCOLOR PORTRAIT PAINTING: CREATE A PORTRAIT WITH WATERCOLOR ARTIST NANCY ROMAN

No experience necessary.  You will need a 5” x 7” photo of a loved one (or yourself).  A color copy is just fine.  Because of the technique we will use to draw the portrait, your photo needs to be 5x7. It should be a PRINTED photo, not a picture on your phone or tablet. If you have a picture but you don’t have that size or can‘t print it, we can help you if you let us know in advance.

Come with just a photo, and in two hours you will have a finished watercolor portrait, ready for framing.
All materials will be provided - paint, paper, brushes, etc.  Registration is required as space is limited.

LOCATION: Meeting Room
