Painting Snowy
WINTER TREES

Let it snow! Let it snow! Let it snow! Put yourself in a wintry mood a bit early. We’ll use basic watercolor applications and a few tricks to create a peaceful evergreen forest in the snow using photographs from the Garden for inspiration. The workshop will include basic drawing instruction, watercolor practice and a final completed piece. If time allows, we’ll practice our watercolor techniques to create a bonus card or two. This workshop is designed to be fun for all experience levels. All materials will be supplied. We’ll be making it snow on our paintings with acrylic paint, so please dress accordingly.

All programs subject to change.

About the Instructor

Throughout her career, Shelley Row has taught art at the elementary, middle, and high school levels in Chesterfield County Schools. She has had her own studio and gallery, taught “in home” painting workshops, and served as adjunct faculty for the VCU Art Education Department. She strongly believes in everyone’s ability to create and the pure joy to be found through “playing” with a variety of art media. As a practicing visual artist, she also understands the absolute necessity of the arts in society and advocates for the visual and performing arts.
“Teaching at Lewis Ginter has been the greatest gift of my retirement years. I have had the privilege of working surrounded by beautiful, ever-changing inspiration and meeting the most wonderful people.”
