Carl Purcell workshop

I participated in a watercolor workshop with Carl Purcell this past week and had a blast. He is well-organized and enables you to complete projects so you have something to show for the time spent. I find it very difficult when there is no time to complete a painting. He is also very tactful in his critiques, but helpful as well.

Here are images of what I painted. The first is the Springville, Utah area...a winter scene...

Next is a barn I found on another workshop in Taos, New Mexico a few years ago...

We completed 3 other pieces which applied some of the techniques he was presenting to the class, such as value studies, negative painting, how to survive without misket, and general composition. A major theme was about leaving whites on the page. Carl offers many workshops and has a great website:
