    Students will need to supply these materials

    Have some fun with the transparency and looseness of watercolors. The emphasis will be on learning and using some basic watercolor techniques to expand the ways you can express yourself. Each class will include exploratory exercises to build skills and gain experience with the medium. With watercolor there is no time to overthink and you are never quite in complete control. So leave perfectionism behind, and enjoy learning about the beauty of watercolor. This is a beginning class, so no experience is necessary. Our class will be on Zoom, a video chat software that is really easy to use. Just download the app on your device. I will provide you with a link before class time. Click on it when class begins, and you are in! Maximum of 8 students. Four 2.5-hour sessions.
