Russ Johnson Watercolor Workshops
Capture your world in watercolor.
Maine Idyll
“Maine Idyll,” by Russ Johnson
Each watercolor workshop provides you with maximum painting time in settings certain to fire your imagination.  The day begins with a brief demonstration painting by Russ and then offers the highest level of one-on-one coaching throughout.  At the end of each day we close with a critique of every painting completed during that session.

Among the key subjects we’ll address:
 
How to work outdoors effectively.
 
How to simplify complex landscapes and seascapes.
 
How to orchestrate the elements and principles of design.
