During this 4-week workshop hosted on Zoom, Susannah demonstrates basic watercolor techniques to paint birds using a limited watercolor palette. No prior painting experience is necessary.

 Students will learn to control watercolor using mostly a wet-on-dry technique with forays into wet-on-wet to create soft edges and textures. During the workshop, we will focus on creating depth and feather texture with paint to create the illusion of realism without sacrificing painterliness. Each Thursday session is 3 hours to accommodate student questions and live feedback as you work.

Students will have access to full recordings of the demos for 90 days after the workshop ends.
