Upcoming Workshops
Landscape in Classic Transparent Watercolor
November 17 - 19, 2025
9:00 am - 12:30 pm
Fee: $334.75
Location:
Art Students League of New York
215 West 57th Street, NYC 10019
All aspects of landscape in classic transparent watercolor will be covered, from the initial graphite drawing, layering of transparent washes and final point-of- brush detailing.
Landscapes and cityscapes require a combination of several skills, starting with a solid understanding of drawing, the foundation of all good Art. In this Workshop, students will learn how to select a composition, and we will explore techniques for creating a sense of space in a landscape and cityscape, using both drawing and color.
Starting the first day with a lecture and demo, the subsequent two days students will employ the concepts covered in their own watercolors.

Join Frederick Brosen this September 10-16, 2025 drawing and painting coastal seascapes in the historic artist colony of Provincetown, MA. After a good creative workout, spend some of your time strolling along the Cape Cod National Seashore where the beach dunes are dotted with adorable New England cottages and lighthouses.
Make sure to check out the local art scene and you will soon learn how Provincetown, for over 100 years, has captured the hearts of many in the creative community; from painters like Edward Hopper to playwrights like Eugene O'Neill. I hope you can come and join our little art group for a short getaway to capture the light of late summer.

Customized Private Instruction:
Over the past 40 years of painting, I have developed a unique approach to watercolor. Rooted in my in-depth studies of classical artists from Renaissance Master Draftsmen to the Early English Watercolorists, I have adapted my technique to suit a more modern application. The foundation of this technique is based on strong graphite drawings and the layering of numerous washes of transparent watercolor. Over the course of my 30 years of teaching I have learned to communicate this approach in an accessible way that can be tailored to suit your personal artistic goals.
I pride myself on teaching to a wide range of experience levels, working with both novices and professional painters alike. The goal is to enable the student not to emulate me, but to paint like themselves more effectively. Currently I teach both workshops and private lessons in person and via Zoom. Information on upcoming workshops will be posted on this page. Private lessons can be arranged by emailing me at rickbrosen@gmail.com or sending me a message here.
