TUESDAY, JUNE 30, 6:30pm - 8:30pm PT This is an in-person workshop at CfM Art Room: 4035 Judah St, San Francisco, next door to our shop! Botanical illustration has a long and storied history, but it often seems inaccessible, since it's so often framed in terms of accuracy or fidelity. But we've been illustrating our relationship to our environment for as long as we've been human (or arguably even before that) – and for most of that time, it wasn't about technical perfection.

Case for Making Color Mix & Match with Alexis Joseph
Thursday, June 25, 5:00pm - 6:30pm PT This is an online workshop held via Zoom. What if understanding how watercolor is made completely changed how you use it? In this watercolor primer, CfM founder Alexis Joseph starts at the very beginning -- demonstrating how a batch of watercolor paint is made from pure pigment. Once you understand the material, everything else starts to click into place. From there, we'll build together: color wheel, basic brush handling, color mixing, and a series of color charts where you'll practice creating gradations of tints and shades to keep as reference.

Case for Making Dorothy Hood’s Abstract Painting with Erin McCluskey Wheeler
Thursday, July 30, 5:00pm - 6:30pm PT This is an online workshop held via Zoom. Dorothy Hood was born in 1918 and spent her life in both Mexico and Texas. Her large abstract paintings are full of hard and soft edges, moments where the paint pools and gathers and places where the paint makes crisp lines and angles. Her colors are bold and inspired by the full range of colors found in both Mexico and Texas. With watercolors, we will play with some of Dorothy’s shapes by creating hard edges with tape, letting the watercolors be soft and blend, and create dynamic shapes with layered colors.
