INTERESTED IN A DEMONSTRATION/ WORKSHOP?
I offer group demonstrations in portrait/figure watercolor painting. Whether your group comprises of beginners eager to learn the fundamentals, or a more experienced group of artists seeking to expand their skills, my demonstrations offer participants an opportunity to learn both through observation and engaging discussion. I cover various topics, including:
- Light and shadow
- Understanding the relationship between water, pigment, and paper
- Watercolor materials
- Color theory
- Visual design principles
- Common mistakes and challenges with watercolor
Each demonstration typically lasts 1.5 hours and includes a Q&A session.
I also offer full day (6-8 hours) / multi-day (2-3 days) workshops in watercolor, where participants can learn drawing fundamentals (lines, shapes, edges, proportions, relationships, gestalt, contours, gestures) in addition to painting. Learning in a group setting fosters a collaborative and supportive environment, allowing participants to learn from each other and share their experiences. They will also receive personalized feedback and guidance.
Contact me for questions or to ask for an example of past demonstrations. My goal is to tailor a demonstration or workshop to your group’s unique needs.
What Participants Are Saying
We had the pleasure of hosting Zarina for a watercolor workshop in July 2024 with Project: VISION, and it was a fantastic experience!
Upon their arrival early with her own supplies and making sure everything was set up perfectly, Zarina was friendly, thoughtful, and well-prepared. She respectfully interacted with students, respecting their original thoughts and thoroughly addressing their questions. Little technical problems happened, but she addressed them with ease and professionalism.
Beyond her knowledge, I really valued our conversation on how we may encourage and inspire young people using the arts. We would like to collaborate with Zarina in the future since her enthusiasm and commitment to the arts left a lasting effect since some of our students watercolor in their free time now!
