Event Overview

We're back in person for this watercolor workshop with a fall theme! We have a new camera/projector combo to demo small painting details to the group on a larger scale. We're excited about it - hope you are too!

We will introduce watercolor fundamentals - wet on dry, wet on wet techniques, mixing colors and finish up by painting an assortment of seasonal greenery and florals. This will be a casual activity and paint your own adventure with painting tips, inspiration, and examples. It's a process-oriented one and absolutely no painting or drawing experience needed - relax and enjoy the fluidity of watercolor. Bring your own adult beverage if you'd like.

Limited seats available so that we can all see the projector and have some space. This is a great workshop to share with friends.

Each ticket will include a kit of materials to use in class and take home with you.

This is a wonderful, spacious studio. The instructor was very patient and kind, and her projector was a very useful way to see her demonstrations. I appreciated the art material provided, and we were all sent home with enough to continue our practice. I look forward to taking additional classes in this space.
