WORKSHOPS & CLASSES
"To draw you must close your eyes and sing." - Pablo Picasso
REGISTRATION AND CANCELLATION POLICY
If you want to attend any of MAA’s multi-day workshops, you need to register in advance. Many of these workshops have a limited number of spaces available. Here is how you can secure your space and what happens if you change your mind.
- To register for a multi-day workshop, you need to pay a $100 deposit, which includes a $25 non-refundable fee. This deposit is applied toward tuition and ensures seating once full payment is made.
- Full payment for the workshop must be made before the published cut-off date for registration, typically one month before the workshop. The actual cut-off date will be announced in the workshop announcement.
- If you decide to cancel your registration before the cut-off date, we will refund all the tuition fees you paid, except for a $25 cancellation fee. If you cancel after the cut-off date, we will not provide any refunds. If the Instructor or MAA cancels the class, we will provide a full refund.
- If the workshop is full when you try to register, you can pay a $100 deposit to join the waitlist. We will refund your deposit in full if we cannot admit you to the workshop.
- For ease of bookkeeping and to ensure an accurate registration count, we ask that all workshop fees be paid by check made out to MAA and mailed to: MAA, Attn: Tia Hunt 5000 Greenbag Road, Morgantown, WV 26501
- This policy only applies to multi-day workshops. Short workshops are more flexible regarding registration and tuition payment. Specific registration details are included in each workshop’s announcement.

MICK MCANDREWS WORKSHOP
Sophisticated Simplicity in Watercolor
www.mickmcandrewsfineart.com
[email protected]
During this watercolor workshop we will paint a variety of subjects including landscapes,
cityscapes and marine scenes using plenty of water and pigment to exploit the wonder
and intrinsic beauty of watercolor.
Areas of discussion will include:
• Simplifying the scene
• Working from reference material
• Use of artistic license
• Developing strong compositions
• Atmospheric perspective
• Visual language
• And the sheer joy of painting
Discussions and demonstrations will emphasize the importance of developing dynamic
shapes, value contrast, and edge quality to produce sound compositions. Participants can
work on the same subject matter as the instructor or you can choose to work from your
own reference material with individual guidance as necessary all in a relaxed and fun filled
setting.
