Learn the basics with your own paint, paper, and brush, or we’ll supply them for $45 (to be paid to Carol at the first class, not at registration). Portable and creative, watercolor is FUN. We will identify the basics that will allow you to be successful and then fly! Ready for more? We will explore composition and color. We will set up a still life and complete it, if necessary on Saturday. Bring a friend or mom or sister and make this summer the one that you remember forever!
