SUMMARY:Watercolor Workshop: The Late Summer Palette
DESCRIPTION:Late summer brings a rich display of color to Hollister House Garden. Pollinator-friendly flowers erupt in bold shades of purple\, pink\, and gold\, mingling with foliage and fruit to create a complex\, shifting palette. In this full-day watercolor workshop\, participants will study color relationships directly in the garden\, then return to the barn to create a botanical color wheel. Watercolorist Betsy Rogers-Knox will guide students through color mixing\, transparent washes\, and techniques for capturing subtle shifts in hue and value. Instruction is tailored to all experience levels. \nThis workshop uses watercolor as a tool for close observation\, helping participants understand how color shapes mood\, rhythm\, and the experience of a garden. Each participant will leave with a painted botanical color wheel—a record of Hollister House Garden’s late-summer palette. \nBring a bag lunch. Water and snacks provided. \nSuggested Materials List \nBetsy Rogers-Knox is an award-winning botanical artist whose watercolor paintings explore the full life cycle of plants and their relationships within the ecosystems they inhabit. She holds a Certificate in Botanical Illustration from The New York Botanical Garden\, where she continues to teach. Her work has been exhibited widely throughout the United States and internationally\, including in the ASBA International Exhibitions\, the NYBG Triennials\, and the RHS Botanical Art Exhibition in London\, where her paintings of Beckley Bog received the Judges’ Special Award for their educational and ecological value.
