I just finished teaching a Zoom watercolor class for Beverley Street Studio School. It went really well, and was fun to teach! I had students from as far away as Fairfax County and Richmond. I also taught a workshop on March 6, about using white space in watercolors, for Beverley Street Studio School. On February 3, I taught “Small Splashy Watercolors” at Shenandoah Valley Art Center in Waynesboro.
I will be Featured Artist at the Shenandoah Valley Art Center (http://www.svacart.com) in Waynesboro for the month of April. The title of the show is “Ebb and Flow”, and will feature plein air landscapes, studio pieces, and some new abstracted landscapes. We hope to have an opening, on April 10.
Peg continues to offer workshops so check out her web page at www.pegsheridan.com/.
