Lorraine Watry, NWS Hummingbird in Flight Three-Day Workshop- March 2025

About this event

This workshop will focus on painting a hummingbird in flight. Hummingbirds are tiny birds with huge personalities. Learn to create the beautiful feathers and show motion in the hummingbirds wings while creating a soft focus background with a wet-on-wet technique.

During this workshop: Students will explore how strong values and vibrant color will make the bird’s feathers feel shiny. We will use layering, wet-on-wet, masking and other techniques to create a realistic likeness of the bird and flowers with a with a blurred background.

Preparation in advance of the workshop: Participants will need to have the drawing for the painting on their watercolor paper and masked prior to the first day of the workshop. Lorraine will be doing my painting 13” x 19” (sized for travel) with a border for stapling or taping my paper down. Images will be provided in advance to workshop participants.

As a bonus project: Time permitting, Lorraine will demonstrate a portion of a swan in water study (7” x 10”) and discuss the similarities and differences to painting glass. Students are welcome to paint along for the study or just watch. Image will be provided in advance to workshop participants.
