Reflective and Transparent, Painting Water and Glass in Watercolors Cathy Hillegas

Cathy Hillegas has been teaching watercolor classes (beginning - advanced) for the last 12 years(11 years at Preston Arts Center in New Albany, IN). Ms. Hillegas is particularly drawn to objects or scenes that are filled with light. Light transforms the mundane: making colors glow,illuminating details, and causing unexpected color to spill into shadows. Light is often symbolic of the transformative power of the spiritual or that which exists beyond ourselves. Light, in her work, serves as both subject and metaphor.Come investigate landscapes with water and light shining through glass bottles in a two-day workshop sponsored by the Chelsea Center for the Arts.
