The Horse in Art: Learning to Draw & Paint Horses

Saturday, September 23, 10 AM – 4 PM

Location: Artist’s Barn Studio / 11519 Rd 42, Mancos, CO

For artists of all levels and ages, we will spend the first half scribbling the structure of a horse, and getting the feel of the animal. The second half of the workshop will focus on color, lighting, shading, and placing the horse in a composition for a finished piece.  We will plan to draw, and then to paint with watercolor on canvas, an excellent learning medium. Cost includes materials and a small canvas. Feel free to bring Breyer models, horse books, or any photos of favorite horses. If there is a special medium you enjoy working with, bring it with you. Horses, art, music, popcorn, fun!

Students will get a great start in approaching the horse in art, and will also learn how to learn. We will hope to have students go home with a piece that is finished or can be finished at home.

Material Costs: Included – We will provide drawing materials and paper, watercolors, and a small canvas.  Students may bring other art supplies.
Bring snacks and a lunch

Minimum 2 students.  Maximum 8 students.
