Pippin Hill Farm & Vineyards

5022 Plank Rd, North Garden, VA 22959

Fully immerse yourself in the art of watercolor painting with a day-long workshop in the Pippin Hill Greenhouse.

With over 30 years of experience with the medium, Amy will guide attendees through a variety of watercolor exercises including custom color mixing, paint-to-water ratio, marks and brush strokes, and embracing the surprise blooms and bleeds that you DO want to occur in your artwork.

Take a break halfway through camp to enjoy a delicious Pippin Hill lunch along with a tasting flight of your choice with your fellow campmates.

This workshop is geared toward beginner artists, but intermediate painters or returning enthusiasts are welcome! Attendees will leave with their very own supplies kit, completed paintings on premium watercolor paper, and newfound skills to replicate their creations at home.

I'm so pleased that I will be partnering with my friend, Christina LaFleur of Winter Oak Wellness.  Christina is a professional dietician, wellness expert and gentle soul of a woman I'm honored to call friend.  Recently she shared a book with me, the New York Times bestseller, Your Brain on Art - How the Arts Transform Us by Susan Magsamen and Ivy Ross.  This book "journeys through the science of neuro-aesthetics, which offers proof of how our brains and bodies transform when we participate in the arts."  I was excited to read that there is science to back what I've believed and experienced through my own watercolor journey and what I've seen with my students I've taught over the years. Christina and I will be working together to help each student find value and "brain strengthening" inspiration in the practice of watercolor as well as working toward a final piece of art each week. 

It will be the third Friday of each month at the Bedford Exchange building off of Bedford Avenue in Lynchburg, Virginia. (no, not in the town of Bedford)

All materials are supplied. Just tap the button below for all the details.  As always, my classes are geared for the beginning watercolor artist. 

We look forward to seeing you!
