Don’t miss this opportunity! Join nationally recognized, Ohio-based sketchbook artist Don Getz, Wednesday, October 24 and Thursday, October 25, from 9-4pm and learn how to sketch quickly and effectively in ink and watercolor.
Don Getz has always cherished the idea of touring America’s back roads and teaching along the way. Join him in his travel journal workshop and be part of the experience! We’ll be going to 2 locations each day, sketching with ink and watercolor. Participants will learn how much they can sketch in a short period of time so they can use this process to sketch and paint while traveling or as part of a tour. This is an exciting opportunity to learn to journal with a nationally known artist and prepare for your own travel adventures. Class fee is $175 members/$200 non-members. To register, contact Suzanne Lewis, Registrar, at 401-254-1668, or, workshops@PortsmouthArts.org.
