The Magic of Winter in Watercolors
Embrace the season and find your inner artist! Join us for a cozy, beginner-friendly workshop where we’ll explore the fluid beauty of watercolor painting. Whether you’ve never touched a brush or just want to refine your skills, you’ll be guided step-by-step through creating your own serene winter scenes.
What You’ll Learn: Essential watercolor techniques, from color mixing to brush control.
What to Bring: Your favorite paints and brushes (or borrow ours if you’re just starting out!).
The Paper: To ensure the best results, we’ll provide professional-grade, 140lb 100% cotton paper for a small $5 material fee.
