SUMMARY:Keiko Tanabe-Painting Impressions with Watercolor
DESCRIPTION:RECOMMENDED EXPERIENCE \nAll levels (basic knowledge & some previous experiences strongly recommended to benefit from this workshop) \nWORKSHOP DESCRIPTION \nDo you paint everything that your eyes see? In this class\, you will start seeing things differently and learn how to turn reality into a captivating\, impressionistic image. The goal is to capture the essence of the subject that conveys a certain mood and atmosphere. Keiko will show you how to take the initial inspiration\, through the simplification process\, to an expressive painting that is strong in composition and content. \nThe introduction focuses on the fundamentals including getting to know our materials and seeing things with an artist’s eye. The areas of topic covered in this workshop include: a preliminary drawing and composition\, a variety of watercolor techniques in paint application and brush handling\, what makes a good design\, understanding of relationship of dark and light values\, planning & intuition\, and how to edit complex visual information. \nKeiko does a daily demonstration with helpful tips and insights. Reference photos will be provided. There will be plenty of one-on-one guidance/critique and a question-and-answer session on a daily basis. \nABOUT INSTRUCTOR \nKeiko Tanabe\, AWS\, NWS\, AIS\, LPAPA. Often working en plein air\, her atmospheric watercolors perfectly capture a sense of time and place. Through her use of color\, textures\, and signature brushwork\, Keiko’s landscapes and cityscapes\, beautifully convey both the exotic and the simple scenes of the many places she travels. Never attending art school\, Keiko took only one drawing class to learn basic technical skills before she started painting in 2005. One year later\, after learning basic drawing and watercolor painting skills at a local community school in San Diego\, Keiko decided to paint full-time. From then on\, she intensely taught herself to be fluent in watercolor painting\, just as one would do to master a foreign language. Her subjects include landscape\, cityscape\, waterscape and interior scenes\, which will be demonstrated in the workshop\, using representational and impressionistic compositions. Since 2011\, Keiko has completed successfully numerous workshops and live demonstrations around the world. She has 4 DVDs and several books of her art and has been featured in many art magazines.
