Color in and Out of the Garden, A Workshop

Color in and Out of the Garden, A Workshop

$125.00

Join artist, author and garden expert Lorene Edwards Forkner for a morning of inspiration, observation, and painting with watercolors in the gardens at Ground! No prior art experience necessary.

Color is about seduction. It is both a delightful gift and one of nature’s most sophisticated tools to capture the attention of all living creatures. In this workshop, Lorene will talk about color, it’s role in a pleasing landscape, and how her daily practice, which she posts on Instagram, has introduced an expansiveness to the way she views the world.

Following this brief introduction, participants will create a nature-based color study using watercolors to record colors found in fragments of the natural world: a tiny blossom, a leaf, or a twig. This is not botanical illustration, but as an exercise in learning to see with fresh eyes and an opportunity to slow down, focus, and savor the season.

Each person will receive a copy of Lorene's book, Color in and Out of the Garden plus all the materials to create their own watercolor observations including:

Instructional handout
Watercolor dot card of 7 sample hues
Craft brush
6” x 6” watercolor paper for finished color study
Additional test strips of watercolor paper
An original 4” x 4” color study painting and test swatches by Lorene

About the instructor:

Lorene Edwards Forkner is an author and speaker whose work centers on exploring the wonders of the natural world. She writes a weekly gardening column for Pacific NW Magazine in The Seattle Times and is the author of numerous gardening titles, including the recently released ‘Color In and Out of the Garden’ (Abrams, 2022). Lorene is a warm and engaging speaker who uses imagery and language to tell garden/life stories that inspire and inform audiences. Find her online at ahandmadegarden.com.

Artist Reception: Melina Finkelstein

$0.00

Please join us for a reception with artist Melina Finkelstein to mark the opening of her show "Paso Doble--Flowers and Wool” on display at Ground. Cinco de Mayo refreshments will be served!

Thursday, May 5, 5:00 PM - 6:30 PM
1520 Tiburon Boulevard, Belvedere Tiburon, CA

Artist statement:

This grouping of new 3'x3' wall-hangings/rugs and square paintings on wood is a celebration of the dialog within myself as a painter and a textile designer. It is a conversation, a dance between technologies, practices, themes and applications. On a personal and spiritual level the flowers are symbols of change and gratitude and to honor the emotional labor required to bring art into existence.

Artist Reception: Elizabeth Needham

$0.00

Please join us for a reception with artist Elizabeth Needham to mark the opening of her photography show of frozen flowers "Thirty-Two Degrees of Beauty” on display at Ground.

Thursday, March 24, 5:00 PM - 6:30 PM
1520 Tiburon Boulevard, Belvedere Tiburon, CA

About the artist:

Inspired by the work of Irving Penn, 32° Beautiful, Flowers in Freeze Frame is Needham's attempt to make interesting pictures, not take pictures of interesting things. Her belief is that taking a photograph of a flower is just too easy and that taking credit for capturing what is already beautiful is lazy. Because of their intrinsic nature, she feels flowers demand more of the photographer.

The process of selecting, freezing and photographing a flower is extremely open to chance. There’s a playfulness and a spontaneity to the whole endeavor that Needham responds to and feels that like life, despite one’s best efforts one really has no way of knowing how things are going to turn out.

Artist Reception: Cayetana Conrad

$0.00

Please join us for a reception with artist Cayetana Conrad to mark the opening of her show of botanical and landscape paintings "The Painted Trail” on display at Ground.

Friday, January 14, 5:00 PM - 6:30 PM
1520 Tiburon Boulevard, Belvedere Tiburon, CA

About the artist:

Although the subject matter of Conrad's paintings is either figures (sometimes under water) or a close up view of nature, her work creates another world, like our own, but a little more magical and vibrant. A few memento mori, like a dead leaf, a bird fossil or the way a figure breaks apart into pieces when submerged under water, remind the viewer of our ephemeral existence, which makes life resonate more profoundly.
