In this two-week course, Wednesdays, June 5 & 12, 6-8 pm, you will be taught the basic techniques of watercolor and how to use them to bring landscapes to life. You will learn about composition, value, and color to capture the beauty of the world around us. Bring along a few photos for reference and learn how to transform them into paintings in your own style. You are also more than welcome to bring your own paints, but it is not required.
