PROGRAM: "There's a Story to be Told" presented by Becky Postell


March 13, 2023

There’s a Story to be Told! What Makes the Most Successful Paintings! The figurative work of Becky Postell.

Becky will present a program of Encouragement to:

• Write Down Your Stories or Inspiration for your Paintings

• Keep Camera or Sketchbook on Hand to capture the Moment - Seek Images that feed your Interests

• Try New Processes and Make it your Own

Please sit back and travel with Becky through her artistic journey, enjoy her stories through a slide show presentation; learn from a watercolor underpainting demo; and learn how to selectively add pastel to your painting in a manner that keeps some of your watercolor underpainting exposed.
