  Painted Views Ranch is hosting a three day watercolor workshop, Thursday, Friday and Saturday, October 22, 23 and 24, 2015 by artist Ann Hoffpauir.

  Ann is a full-time artist from Orange, Texas who paints is a realistic style.  Her superb paintings, done in different mediums, reflect a wide range of subjects.

 

  Although she works in many mediums, in this workshop Ann will be teaching watercolors.  The pouring method will be used in the classes, making the colors liquid and pouring them onto the misted wet paper.  Watching the liquid colors mix and swirl onto the wet paper is exciting, spontaneous and colorful. 

  You too can create wonderful works of art with this method.  Come and join her for an exciting and colorful way to paint.
