Watercolor Workshops
These workshops are for anyone wishing to paint with dramatically enriched,
yet believable color. Paint, have fun, and learn more than you ever imagined
possible! Ken Hosmer presents two valuable learning tools: a unique color system,
which is unsurpassed for developing pure transparent color schemes; and the
Hosmer Design Model, a simplified way to organize and creatively interpret painting
ideas. All watercolor demonstrations stress the spontaneous, splashy look.
Ken has a special gift for clearly explaining his artistic method as he
paints. As a devoted teacher, he organizes ideas into simple terms and
offers plenty of personal help and encouragement, making the class ideal
for beginning and advanced students. A typical day might include demonstration
and lecture in the morning with class work time and individual help in
the afternoon. Often the class ends with a critique session. |

| COLOR DYNAMICS II |
- 115 minutes
Artist, Ken Hosmer, is noted for his unusual and sensitive use of
vibrant color. In this outstanding video, Ken provides an in depth
look at the practical use of color. He shows how to mix watercolors
on the paper to avoid the "mud trap." He explains the advantages of
complementary colors, swinging the color wheel, and color shifts of
objects in light and shadow. The video includes two complete painting
demonstrations: (1) human figures and (2) a landscape; also a demonstration
of ink sketching on location.

| MORE DYNAMIC COLOR |
- 119 minutes
An expansion of additional color ideas from those presented
in Color Dynamics II , this new video is for anyone wishing to paint
with dramatically enriched, yet believable color. Ken focuses on three
secrets to achieving color harmony and provides a practical system to organize
your color thinking as you paint. He also takes you on a tour of his new color
wheel of very intense tube colors. Painting demonstrations include: (1) rooster
and chickens, (2) landscape of barn and trees in snow.

| |
| WATERCOLOR BASICS |
- 97 minutes
A must for the intermediate or beginning watercolor painter, this video explores
important techniques, such as managing water in the brush for flow control,
lifting methods, organizing the palette, stretching paper, using various types
of watercolor paper, and more. Emphasis is on translating value into color.
Practice exercises and a dynamic watercolor demonstration of potted geraniums
in a window make this video an excellent resource.

| KEN HOSMER PAINTS ANIMALS |
- 104 minutes
This practical guide to painting animals includes Ken's outstanding
ink-wash sketching technique and two splashy watercolor demonstrations:
(1) a cat painted on hot pressed paper for hyped up textural effects
and (2) a cow with calf.

| |
| New on DVD |
| SECRETS OF FLOWER PAINTING |
- 108 minutes
This exciting new video shares many key secrets to painting enriched, beautiful
flowers in watercolor. In Part 1, Ken introduces an easy four-value painting
system as he guides you through a simplified painting of pansies. In Part
2, he emphasizes exaggerated light shapes and shadows to create the curving
forms of roses. Both paintings are carefully explained as they progress, giving
insight into the artist's thinking.
