Preregistration is required to attend all classes and workshops at Arlene’s. Space is limited so please register soon. Click the link to register online. Otherwise, please come into the store, at 57 Fuller Rd Albany NY, or call us, at (518) 482-8881, to reserve your space.
Discover the charm of sketching cozy cafés and inviting restaurants using watercolor and ink. This workshop is perfect for all skill levels and will help you capture the warm atmosphere, small details, and lively scenes that make your favorite dining spots so memorable. Ottavia will guide you step‑by‑step as you create a watercolor and pen sketch from a photograph—from the initial pencil layout, to inking your lines, to finishing with watercolor. Feel free to bring a reference photo (or two) of a café or restaurant you love. Supplies are not included in the workshop fee. A PDF supply list is available in the workshop description.
Please note that our classes are typically held in the lower level of Arlene's. Because access to the lower level is available only by stair, please let us know if using the stairs presents any difficulty for you in advance of the class so we can make alternate arrangements. We want to make sure everyone is able to enjoy and participate in our classes.
