Enjoy the pleasure of the watercolor painting experience in the Guild Hall garden and anticipate summer on the beach. All levels of art experience are welcomed.
Select a seashell and other objects. Observe the lines and shapes. Play with an arrangement to create a composition. The color wheel will be reviewed to understand how to mix the primary colors (red, yellow, blue) to represent the neutral tones of the seashells. A demonstration will provide guidance to paint the forms, lines and build subtle variations of color. Be inspired by examples of watercolor techniques, color value, and composition. Guests will be encouraged to explore the fluid and spontaneous quality of this beautiful medium and share with others at the Art Social.
Materials will be provided, or attendees can bring their own supplies.

Artist Statement
Inspired By Nature
Natural landscapes have always inspired my art. I have explored the varied scenery of the Hudson Valley as well as the beachscapes on Long Island, Massachusetts and Maine.
When I sit down surrounded by a beautiful panorama, I am mesmerized by the magic of the scenery and excited by the opportunity to capture my impression on paper. Drawings are responds to my interpretation of what you see. With watercolor there is always an element of not knowing how the finished piece will develop; I love the spontaneity of this fluid media. As I paint, the light changes and the clouds shift, the wind blows, all this becomes part of the experience of capturing and creating.
Printmaking also involves this element of magical discovery in seeing how the print develops. And this continues to be true as the printing possibilities are explored.
I have taught students throughout Westchester and now in the Hamptons, and I have been privileged to witness their joy in this process of creating and discovery. Though we may all view the same landscape, the creative expressions are as varied as the people themselves, and this inspires my teaching and my creative process as well.
Some of my pieces are realistic interpretations of subjects and others explore concepts through abstraction. To appreciate any process of art is to appreciate its endless opportunities. The observation of nature and the modes of expression are an enduring inspiration and a continual pursuit.
WITH LIZ JOYCE
Work out your bugaboos by making your very own therapy sock puppet – the perfect companion when you need an objective, non-judgmental ear to talk to. Master puppeteer Liz Joyce will lead you through the process of making an adorably understanding creature. Just bring a large sock – all other materials are included.
Liz Joyce’s artistic approach to puppetry has been influenced by European puppetry traditions and the eccentric energy of New York’s downtown performance artists. She honed her carving skills working with traditional puppet carvers in Prague, Czech Republic, and often collaborates with other puppeteers in the international puppet community.
