About this Event

Abstract Watercolor: Foundations & Flow

If you've ever wanted to try watercolor but felt intimidated, this class is for you. In this 4-week series, you'll learn the fundamentals of watercolor through a relaxed, hands-on approach that focuses on exploration rather than perfection. Using abstract techniques, we'll take the pressure off "getting it right" and instead focus on understanding how the medium moves, blends, and surprises.
