Milton Arts Guild to host watercolor workshop with Marie Natale June 25-27

Milton Arts Guild will offer Loose, Luminous and Colorful!, a watercolor workshop with Marie Natale, from Monday, June 25 to Wednesday, June 27, at Milton Fire Hall.

Attendees will leave the tight, drab, laborious style behind and create fabulous, glowing results like never before. Natale will help students paint with ease, and add interest and energy to their paintings. Whether students are new to painting or already watercolor enthusiasts, Natale will guide their journeys to explore their inner artists, showing a fearless method of using the vibrancy of color and understanding the importance of color theory and value contrasts in their work.

Students will be amazed at the fresh, clean and luminous results when using color triads, proper brush techniques and direct painting methods. Natale is known for her friendly teaching style, making classes both fun and informative. She will help participants discover the joy only this wonderful painting medium provides and dispel any fears of its difficulty. 

Daily subjects will be landscapes and buildings - value and contrast creating distance; skies, boats and water reflections; and adding people in paintings.

Since age 12, Natale has developed her artistic talent, earning a master’s degree in art education from Rowan University. A lifelong love affair with creativity and art garnered Natale a variety of achievements. She taught in the public school system for 10 years, and won a Teacher of the Year Award. Natale currently teaches watercolor privately at her home studio as well as at community centers and art guilds all over the East Coast and abroad.

Class size is limited to 20 people.Tuition for the three-day class is $295 for MAG members and $325 for nonmembers. Supply lists will be sent after registration.
