Come experience the delight of watercolor painting combined with drawing fundamentals to help you create your own beautiful works of art! This 4 session class has something for everyone, whether you’re a beginner eager to learn or an experienced artist ready to build on your existing skills.

During the second 2 sessions, we’ll explore the expressive possibilities of watercolor. Beginners will discover what the medium can really do, while returning students will deepen their skills through new techniques each week. We’ll work from simple still life arrangements, giving you the chance to experiment and apply what you’ve learned in vibrant, personal ways.
This class is designed for both new and returning students.

late winter Drawing:
prompts + practice
With Rosie
Ages: Adults
Class Time: 12:15 - 1:45pm
Dates: Thursdays 2/26, 3/5, 3/12, 3/19
Join us to build a drawing practice. In this 4 week class we will work with prompts and suggestions, and will have space to take them in our own directions. Each week we will investigate some different reasons and ways to draw, and will come to see drawing as a tool with so many incredible functions. We can draw to record our lives, to collaborate with others, to see what images live in our visual memories. We can draw to slow down and observe, to practice quickness and recklessness, to notice change over time, and to chill out. We will learn some observational drawing skills and will prioritize drawing as an experiential process.
This class is for people of any experience level who are excited to draw.
All materials provided.
