Desert Artists’ League is sponsoring a watercolor and gouache workshop with David Kirk (www.dkirksworks.com). This workshop will focus on exploring the versatile water based medium of gouache. We’ll also discuss the similarities and differences between gouache and watercolor and how the two can be combined. By practicing both pleine air painting (weather permitting) and using reference work, we’ll discuss the concepts of composition, value, and color mixing, experimentation and playfulness. The workshop will be November 3 and 4, 2025 from 8 (set up) to 4pm with a lunch break at the Church of the Nazarene, 517 N. Norma St, Ridgecrest CA. Cost is $100. for members or $150. for non-members. A payment will hold your place. Mail to Desert Artists’ League PO Box 1938 Ridgecrest CA 93556. Maximum of 15 participants. It is open to artists of all levels. See our website desertartistsleague.org for more contact information and how to become a member. David Kirk will do a demonstration at our November 3, 2025 meeting at the Church of the Nazarene at 6:30pm. Guest attendance at the first meeting is free and $5.00 for subsequent meetings.
