“Capturing Animals with Camera and Brush”

Cost: $160.00 – This includes all materials except your own personal painting gear.



In this 3 day workshop we will explore photographing and then painting animals and birds in watercolor. Artists may create a 1 color (monochrome) or a full color painting.



Day One: Basics of photographing animals and birds in the wild and at home. Bring your camera, even a cell phone camera can be useful. We will talk about what to do with all the buttons and gizmos on said camera….the use of the light, and understanding your subject.



We will choose a subject to paint, and begin prepping the watercolor paper. There will be a demo on paper stretching. Artists may bring their own reference photos (please, only your own photographs, or those you use with the photographer’s permission). If you bring your own photo please have one 4x6 copy and one 8x10 copy. Jan will have reference materials available for those who want to use them.



Day 2 and 3: This time will be spent painting-there will be several demos throughout each day.


My personal work is headed in a new direction-one that I am very excited about! I would love to see ya’ll and share what I’ve been up to…



**If there is enough interest, I would like to put together a one day photography workshop at Horicon Marsh, in Horicon WI. This would take place in October (after the mosquitoes freeze to death). The cost would be $30 for the day. Participants should bring a good camera, and be able to hike on flat ground without difficulty. Approx. 2 miles of hiking.



Please let me know as soon as you can if you have interest in either workshop. Contact Jan at: briarhillstudio@gmail.com
