Workshop: Sketchbook: Ghost Ranch
Dates: August 5 - 11, 2013.
Where: Ghost Ranch Education & Retreat Center. Abiquiu, New Mexico
Description: Imagine the magic that is the Ghost Ranch, captured between the pages of a sketchbook journal? Mornings we ramble it’s dusty trails pausing under fruit trees and tucked away gardens to document wildflowers, pollinators, macro views sweeping vistas . Moving indoors to sketch from the Ruth Hall Museum of Paleontology’s fossils and dinosaurs and Florence Hawley Ellis Museum of Anthropology’s ancient artifacts, pottery and weavings.

Evenings
we gather for sketchbook entries to take shape…rough sketches refined,
sightings shared and discussed, color added to views and vistas, specimens
identified. A dizzying selection of art mediums
wet and dry are demo’ed nightly. Dabble
in all or master one. Personal direction in style and subject matter
encouraged. From quick ink scribble, controlled colored pencil study, to atmospheric
pastel landscape and sparkling wee watercolor.
