Explore the ethereal beauty of watercolor. Enjoy an introductory session on the application and joy of painting with watercolor.
About this Event

Experience the fun and relaxation of watercolor painting.

Don’t let this medium intimidate you!

Watercolor can be loose and ethereal or as sketchy and illustrative as you want it, as it is a versatile medium. BUT Learning some basic principles is important to gain a better grip (pun intended) on the subject.

PLAN:

  • After a brief intro, I will do a basic demo session
  • We will practice with various mini exercises; wet-on-wet vs. wet-on-dry techniques
  • We move on to create a simple composition you can take home with you!
  • If you are a little more advanced or have had previous watercolor experience, this may be a good refresher, and you are still welcome to join us. We will be going at a beginner pace.
