Workshops

In-person and online watercolor workshops with Dylan Scott Pierce, focused on expressive painting, strong design, and practical technique.

“I have tried to paint with watercolors since high school, even after a semester of watercolor painting at the Cleveland Institute of Art, and I found it frustrating. Painting with Dylan was a revelation. My skills took a leap during the two-day workshop.”
— C. Williams

​

“I can’t thank you enough for the wonderful workshop. I learned more than I have in any other workshop. You are a fantastic teacher, and it’s wonderful that you go around to each student to help them. Your kind, gentle spirit puts students at ease.”
— Conny Seiler

“I have taken several workshops and classes from Dylan, and each time I am impressed by his talent both as an artist and as a teacher. He provides clear, detailed instruction and gentle, constructive feedback that has helped me move my watercolor skills to the next level.”
— Jeannie E.
