Have you always wanted to explore the timeless beauty of watercolor painting? This welcoming, hands-on workshop is the perfect place to start. Learn fundamental techniques and enjoy experimenting with color and form as we blend basic sketching with gentle watercolor washes. Be inspired by still-life subjects such as fruit and flowers, and let your imagination guide your brush. Led by Julie Jeannene Rickard, a local mixed media artist, this class celebrates creativity in all its forms. Julie’s passion for artistic exploration will help you unlock your expressive potential, no matter your experience level. All materials are provided - just bring your curiosity!
