Location: Downtown Portland
As daylight fades, dramatic shifts begin to transform the colors of the sky and the world around us. In this special night sketching session, we’ll explore how to capture the evolving atmosphere of the evening—from warm sunset, to soft dusk, to luminous blue hour, and finally into darkness.
Through color mixing demos and quick studies we will learn how to translate these fleeting moments into expressive sketches, focusing on color, value, and mood rather than detail. We’ll look at how light shapes what we see—and how to suggest it effectively using watercolor.
