Join our 2-Part June Watercolor Workshops

Irresistible Irises! 2-Part Watercolor Workshops with Pamela Harnois
Saturdays, June 6 and 13, 2026
1pm-3pm EDT
(Eastern Daylight Time)*

Workshop Description

Join us for irresistible irises—the way they lean, spill into one another, and carry a quiet kind of beauty that never asks for perfection. In Irresistible Irises, you’ll explore watercolor in that same spirit: luminous washes, soft transitions, expressive movement, and intuitive flow. Through transparent layering, atmospheric color passages, and guided brushwork, you’ll learn how to allow the painting to unfold naturally while creating depth, rhythm, and emotion.

This workshop is an invitation to paint with freedom, trust your artistic instincts, and discover how powerful watercolor can become when feeling and gesture guide the process. You’ll leave with new techniques, renewed inspiration, and a painting that feels deeply personal, vibrant, and entirely your own.

Part 1 - The Elements, Sat, June 6: Brushwork techniques, color mixes, directional flows (Color mixing in Part 1 only)

Part 2 - The Mindset, Sat, June 13: Gestural inspirations, contrasts and compositions, project piece painting

Pamela Harnois, watercolor artist

In my Norfolk, Connecticut studio

In Pamela’s watercolors, one discovers a delicate balance of lightness and fluidity, showcasing a style that is uniquely her own. Each brushstroke exudes a spontaneous flow, as she allows the paints to dance freely across the paper, seamlessly blending colors and contrasts. Observers are immediately captivated by the interplay between light and dark, as well as the juxtaposition of proportions and dimensions within her compositions. The ability to capture the very essence of her subjects reflects not only her formal training—a BFA in Watercolor from the University of Massachusetts Amherst—but also her innate talent for intuitive brushwork, cultivated through years of practice and exploration. In her work, she not only captures moments but also evokes emotions, inviting viewers into a world where every brushstroke tells a story. For more info, click here.
