About
Any skill level is welcome to this watercolor paint-along! This is the place for you whether wanting to start watercolor painting is part of your New Year's resolution, you're simply excited to try something new, or you've been painting for some time and would like to be part of a cooperative class.
You'll use your own watercolor set to sketch and paint a 5-inch by 7-inch Pacific Northwest bird on paper provided to you in class, where you'll be guided every step of the way by your instructor. You'll complete the painting in the class.
Be ready to have fun with this 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 with your own painting. All questions welcome! The instructor will provide individualized tips and tricks for working with watercolor.
