Expressive Watercolor
Tuesday, September 16, 2025
10:00am-12:30pm
Instructor: Natalie Brooks
Class Description: Expressive watercolor combines blind contour drawing with color impressionism. The result is a beautiful, loose, and lively semi-abstract artwork, and just as important- stress reduction for the artist: YOU! Expressive watercolor is perfect for beginners, and advanced students will learn to hone their eye for line, color, and value. Even if you have taken this class before, you will exercise new skills and leave with a completely different painting!
All supplies are included in your session fee.
Registration includes admission to the beautiful gardens before or after class.
