4 Day Workshop at Menucha!

May 5-8, 2025

This workshop is geared for beginning artists looking for new techniques or seasoned artists seeking to get reignited again with art. Get out of your daily surroundings and be inspired by the rustic lodge and forest surroundings of Menucha. During this three day workshop we will go over techniques, such as creating textures, mark making, playing with composition, and experimenting with different art materials. You will (re)discover how your sketchbook practice can strengthen your art.

We will be working in our sketchbooks, which gives freedom from perfection. This will give the space needed to sketch, doodle, paint, and draw what makes your heart happy. There will be optional extra sessions in the evening that will be about making your own sketchbook with your favorite paper.

Demonstrations by Elizabeth will include creating textures with watercolor and gouache paint, harnessing negative shapes, redefining composition, drawing from life and photos, value studies, and more. You will leave this workshop with techniques that can carry on outside of your sketchbook.
