About
Explore the exciting, delightful medium of watercolor and get prepared to travel with your paints. Learn some skills for plein air (French for "in the open air") painting so your next outing, vacation, or visit to the park can include art. It's remarkably satisfying to create your own images of the places you visit.
You'll learn technical aspects of watercolor. Instruction includes a discussion of paints, brushes, and paper; introduction to color; understanding the color wheel; mixing colors; and experimenting with many watercolor techniques. We'll also talk about value and composition and how everything works together to create strong, successful paintings.
Plan to enjoy yourself! This is a class to learn solid technique and have fun — to experience freedom, exploration and discovery.

"I believe there is a magic mix of skill and heart that combine to create paintings that arrest the viewer. When we can communicate our inner being through our art — that is the essence of being an artist." - S. Worth
