Our recent Nancy Nowak workshop



Once again the FCPS has hosted an excellent workshop with a great instructor. This year our instructor was Nancy Nowak from Atlanta.


Her work is beautifully impressionistic, and she spends a lot of time creating an underpainting.

We had a full classroom of people who signed up for this intensive 3-day workshop. Workshop attendee Kathleen Trued said:
Day 1 and 2 were pastel + alcohol underpainting; day 3 was watercolor underpainting with drips and splashes. The details of the painting were delicately inserted with edge of pastel for suggestion of tree trunks, branches and for foliage.

Certainly Nancy's demo paintings were wonderful. We were fortunate to have her so relatively nearby, and to be willing to come down and teach for us.
