Please join us for Watercolor Wednesday’s during the month of May. This four-week mini series is for students who have completed The Watercolor Pages introductory class for beginning watercolorists or for those who have had some other introductory classes in the watercolor medium.

Mingle with fellow watercolorists, make new friends and either start a new painting or bring in something you are already working on. If you are considering working from a photograph(s), please bring them in or bring objects that inspire you and we can play with what goes into creating a setup.

This is a non-structured class but the instructor is available to assist and to help students while also providing inspirational relevant materials.

This class is open to representational, abstract, or journal/sketchbook based artists + !

If you are NEW to watercolor, “The Watercolor Pages Design, Technique & Flow” class will be given once during the summer during the month of June on Sunday afternoons for 5 weeks. Please check WAA website (education tab) for more details or call the WAA office @ 860 868 2878.
