Sharpening the Eye While Training the Hand: Watercolor with Paul Cézanne and Fr. Edward Catich by Christopher Reno – Level: (A) All levels
Through this introductory watercolor course we will examine the role that geometric forms play in the observation and translation of nature, while discovering links between observed geometry in life and the formalized kinesthesis of calligraphy. Our goal will be to explore the deeper connections between calligraphy and painting/drawing. Our research will involve the examination of watercolors by both Paul Cézanne and Edward Catich. By following their lead we will make historical connections between the types of mark-making required across the various disciplines. In practice, we will focus on creating watercolors by observing still life arrangements, but landscape and portraiture will also be explored as desired.
Artworks will be created utilizing reed, pen and brush with the basics of color theory also discussed as appropriate. In the final experimental class, students will be encouraged to create calligraphic works from the research gleaned in previous sessions. The examples set forth by Fr. Catich will be of primary value here.
Class Supplies:
Materials required for the class are simple and flexible. Each student should bring:
- A watercolor set, either cake or tube
- A variety of mark-making implements: Brushes of various sizes (but generally smaller) and various types such as liners. Flats and rounds are necessary as well as reeds and pens.
- Paper should be sturdy watercolor sheets or blocks in a variety of sizes, with enough paper to make up to a dozen artworks over two-and-half days.
Experimentation requires options, so students should keep that in mind when packing for the class.
