Course Description

Keene State’s Institute for Learning in Retirement is the Cheshire Academy for Lifelong Learning (CALL). The program is affiliated through the Institute Network with the internationally known Road Scholar program. CALL is an educational program aimed at seniors and/or retired folks. The difference between Road Scholar and Institutes for Lifelong Learning like CALL is that the institutes are typically non-residential. Our classes are lead by members, community experts, and Keene State faculty. Classes are offered for eight weeks in the fall and eight weeks in the spring, with a four-week “mini-session” offered in January and February. CALL members support Keene State students through the CALL Wonderment scholarship. They also generously donate to the CALL Program Fund to support CALL initiatives like gatherings and teas, field trips, and classroom sound systems. Donate here! Still have questions?

Notes

These workshops are for all levels, but some watercolor experience is needed, as well as your own supplies. Bring the brushes and paints you always use to paint. Donna highly suggests 100% cotton watercolor paper. Please bring some extra paper so you can do a quick practice first, perhaps the back of old paintings or even just a few smaller pieces.

Other things you will need: pencil, eraser, small misting bottle, a board for your paper, container for your water, an old bath towel and paper towels. We will be doing some background spraying, and this will free you up to let the extra watercolor drip off your paper.

Donna will provide everyone with a reference photo, which we will use to compose a loose painting.
