This event is in collaboration with the Fabriano-In-Acquarello, an annual international watercolor exhibition in Italy; The Society of Watercolor Artists, Fort Worth; The City of Fort Worth; and other sponsors such as Fabriano Watercolor Paper and the Daniel Smith Paint Company. It is the world’s biggest watercolor exhibition. The event will feature more than 1000 curated watercolor paintings by artists with different styles, different techniques, different themes, and different subject matter from more than 80 countries all over the world. On October 14-15-16, the event will be attended by watercolor artists from all over the world. During those three days there will be over 25 demonstrations of watercolor techniques conducted by internationally well-known masters. The exhibition of the paintings will remain open the rest of that week. If you are coming to Fort Worth to visit the exhibition of over 1,000 watercolor paintings from around the world, there will be a one-time fee of $20/person. That ticket is good for multiple visits. You do not have to pre-register or prepay the fee if you are only going to visit the painting exhibition. Admission is FREE on Friday 10/18 and Saturday 10/19.

"This one day class will focus on the use of watercolor to paint exciting impressionistic paintings. You paint from a variety of landscape references and will explore the use of light and shadow to create interesting compositions and achieve dynamic results.

"We will examine the fundamentals of watercolor painting to assure that all students are familiar with the techniques. We will discuss and apply the principles and elements of design so they will be woven into your painting experience. This will be an opportunity to develop a loose and impressionistic technique while keeping your subject strongly in focus."
