Wickham Park Community Center
2815 Leisure Way, Melbourne FL 32935
Instructor – Lolly Walton
In our September mini workshop we’ll be unleashing our individuality by creating our unique works of art by utilizing a variety of found objects.
Lolly will demonstrate how an array of commonly used objects can add interest and texture to your paintings. She will demonstrate how she has used table salts, Saran Wrap, bubble wrap, tissue paper, and shaved watercolor pencils to add texture and interest in her paintings. You’ll then create your unique landscape or abstract. You decide… you’re the artist!

About the Artist
It wasn’t until 1997 when Lolly Walton took watercolor classes at Miami Dade Community College that she became “hooked on watercolor.” Then when she and her husband retired and moved to Melbourne she decided to devote her time to what she loves, which is watercolor. She hit the ground running and hasn’t stopped. Lolly’s artwork reflects her passion for color, texture, and creativity. As Lolly says, “There is so much to capture on paper and “creativity is endless.”
Lolly’s art can be seen at Fifth Avenue Gallery and Strawbridge Art Gallery. She is currently teaching at the Sebastian River Art Club and soon to be teaching at Central Brevard Art Association in Rockledge. Contact Lolly for more information: 321-652-7115 or lollyart4ale@cfl.rr.com.
