​If you've never attempted watercolors before - or you'd like to further explore this forgiving, fluid, and beautiful medium - welcome! This class will simplify your first attempt, or take you to another level on your painting journey. If you've ever been stuck with a painting, dissatisfied with the results, this class will demystify it all for you. You'll learn color mixing, lifting, brush-stroke techniques, paint application, and much more in this supportive, non-intimidating and relaxed atmosphere. ​ ​There will be ongoing demonstrations, detailed, helpful handouts and a presentation of supplies and tools to help you in the painting process. ​ ​This class is for all skill levels!

Please, bring a snack for our short break.​ ​All supplies will be provided, but for those who want to bring their own material, please see below for a list of suggested supplies and paints for your first class. ​
