Watercolor Classes Online and In-Studio
If you love watercolor art, you can begin creating it! Learn in a fun and relaxed environment. A mixture of in-class activity and instruction. Students will learn foundational art theory as well as further explore how to compose their paintings, best use watercolors and make decisions about the placement of objects.
You'll also have access to an online forum where we will exchange ideas, ask questions and get in-process feedback as we are working on our projects. This class will get you painting each week and moving forward in your art skills. Having a regular art class to attend online or in person keeps artists learning and provides a creative community.
