About this Event

Paint the iconic architecture of Old Town Annapolis with Em Campbell on a guided evening watercolor experience around State Circle!

This relaxed 90-minute workshop is open to all skill levels — complete beginners to painters looking to loosen up outdoors. Bring your own supplies or purchase a watercolor travel kit at checkout. Working in a small group, Em will guide you through the essentials of painting on location so you can capture the feeling of a place without getting overwhelmed by detail.

Topics include:

  • Simple outdoor setup and supplies
  • Choosing a paintable subject
  • Basic composition
  • Limited palette work
  • Adapting to changing light
  • Keeping your painting loose and efficient


New to art? No worries. Em will walk you through the painting experience step-by-step, plus, everyone starts with a pre-sketched town landscape so you can jump straight into painting.

You'll leave with a finished painting and the confidence to set up anywhere on your own.

Space is limited to keep the group small and allow for personal guidance. Bring a folding chair or cushion — this is a street-level outdoor experience, so dress for the evening and wear comfortable shoes.

A professional-grade traveler's watercolor kit, thoughtfully stocked with everything you need to paint anywhere, is available at registration. No stress. Just brushes, brickwork, and the best-looking city in Maryland.
