My Makover
BY GARRY HAMILTON
In each workshop you will learn how to work in thin layers of washes to build up luminous
colors. Emphasis will be on what makes a good painting, planning the entire picture
area, the importance of thinking through the composition, good division of shapes, value
planning, what to communicate about the subject, and how to correct mistakes.
Through informal lectures, discussions, demonstrations and critiques, you will refine your
personal painting style. Come prepared to be entertained, make new artist friends and find
logical and creative answers to your watercolor questions.

NWS Workshop 1: Paintings: The Abstract Nature of Nature
October 24-26, 2016
10:00 AM-3:00 PM
Robbie Lairds paintings have received numerous awards in national and international exhibitions. They
captivate the viewer with an exciting balance of flowing ambiguity and varying amounts of specific detail.
Using large brushes and flowing paint, her work dances on the edge of abstraction and reality.
She sometimes uses the unique qualities of flowing transparent watercolor to create mysterious rhythmic
works, while in other pieces she incorporates a
variety of other watermedia. A continuing source of
inspiration is her lifetime interest in natural cycles

In Memoriam
Marilyn H. Schutzky, NWS, AWS
Marilyn Schutzky, 80, passed away on February 27, 2016. Born in Soda Springs, Idaho, she
was the eldest of four children. She attended the University of Utah where she began her
formal art education. Later, she studied at the University of California and added depth and
insight to her work through workshops with renowned artists. She was always learning and
perfecting her visual voice.
Schutzkys dramatic floral and still life paintings had enticing rhythms, shapes and patterns.
Unusual lighting and a close up viewpoint made shadows an important element of her work.
Intense colors and surprising subjects were presented with great design, sound composition
and her own personal vision of reality. With great skill, she produced a large body of paintings
many of which are included in numerous personal and corporate collections across America.
In 2003, she proudly achieved her NWS Signature Member Status. In 2012, she was
presented with American Watercolor Society Signature Member Status. As a Signature
Member of numerous other societies, she received many awards and accolades for her
unique watercolor paintings. Her creativity has been exhibited in over 100 major exhibitions
and group shows throughout the country. Many Solo and Two Artist exhibitions have included
her paintings. Her biographical listing has been included in Whos Who in America, Whos
Who in the West and Whos Who of American Women, and a long list of publications have
featured her work.
