About
Get pro tips as you build your skills using new techniques not covered in previous classes.
You'll sketch and paint an 8-inch by 10-inch blue heron in this workshop-based class with step-by-step demonstrations by your instructor, Pacific Northwest watercolor artist Caleb Tucker, known for his work of the area's plants and animals. You'll have ample time and be able to follow along with your own painting as he provides personalized tips and instruction.
Be ready to have fun with a classic medium and explore the advantages of using a universal, transportable art form. The class is designed for you to watch an instructor paint a section, then follow along with your own painting.
