Anne Abgott Online Art Workshop: Tulip Time in Watercolor, May 5, 2025

Anne has had several requests for a workshop on painting tulips, so she chose this painting to teach you that, and many other things as well.  You will learn a lot about leaving the white of the paper, without masking, to develop drama.  You will also use multiple yellow pigments both for light values and those tricky darks.  Learn Anne’s unique technique of mingling the colors of the flowers to unify the painting, and learn her famous method of adding a dramatic dark background.  You can learn it all from the comfort of your own home or studio in this one-day, live & interactive class through Zoom! Anne will motivate and guide you step-by-step as she demonstrates her techniques and unique process.  You will receive personalized feedback during the interactive demonstrations, and with an overhead camera, you’ll have the same view that Anne has as she paints!  The class is best for intermediate artists and up, as some watercolor experience is needed. Anne will not finish the painting in this 4-hour class, but she will be teaching and covering all the elements needed for you to complete the image on your own.   Please note that the example painting shown may be altered or different from the reference photo provided. Cheap Joe’s will record the workshop and upload the unlisted video to our YouTube channel.  Enrolled students will have unlimited, lifetime access to the video so you can watch again later at your convenience, and at your own pace.  Anne will also be available for email assistance after the workshop to finish your painting, or for critique. Students will be provided with a reference photo, pre-class instructions, and other information prior to the workshop.   Anne will not be providing a pattern drawing as she feels it’s important for you to see and feel the shapes as you put them on the paper yourself. Anne is teaching six 1-day Watercolor workshops in 2025 (January-May), each with a different subject and painting.  One is not a pre-requisite to take Anne’s other workshops.  You are welcome to take a single favorite, several, or all 6.

Pre-class instructions and/or specific details will be emailed 1 week prior to the workshop.
