Botanical Watercolor Workshop with Jean Cate Saturday, March 22 10:30-12:30

Join artist and Martha Mae Art Supplies and Beautiful Things founder, Jean Cate, for an in-person botanical watercolor workshop at Third Season by The Roof Crop on Saturday, March 22nd 10:30am-12:30pm.

Dive into the world of watercolors with Jean as she guides you through an exploration of dried flowers. To enhance our connection to the subject matter, Third Season by The Roof Crop has crafted honey watercolors. Made from sustainably grown botanicals and reclaimed kitchen scraps from Maxwells Trading, each batch is meticulously produced using the traditional muller and slab technique.

All necessary materials will be provided for your painting session (painting supplies not to be taken home), but feel free to bring your favorite art supplies if you have them. Tickets include the watercolor workshop, honey watercolor card and a dried flower arrangement by Third Season for you to take home, and coffee, tea and light bites.

Jean Cate (b. 1990 in Pasadena, CA) is an artist, living and working in Chicago. She received her BFA from The School of the Art Institute of Chicago with focuses in painting, drawing, printmaking, and ceramics. Cate also studied papermaking, philosophy, and performance at Ox-Bow School of Art & Artists' Residency in Saugatuck, MI.

Cate creates evocative paintings and drawings exploring the theme of atmosphere. Her works draw inspiration from the ever-changing and dramatic forces of nature. Utilizing watercolor, pastel, ink, and salt on raw birch wood panel, Cate engages with these mediums in a dance-like manner, relinquishing the illusion of control and allowing natural forces like water, air, and gravity to shape the artwork. When not working in abstract form, Cate draws quiet, still portraits of flora and fauna.

Cate’s work has been featured in hotel projects by Marriott, print publications: Cereal, Monocle, Wallpaper* and the Steve McQueen film Widows.
