Maybe I’m biased, but I believe that as artists, we are uniquely capable of bringing beauty and joy to others. And sometimes, artists go above and beyond…

Tri-level, first the (Yellow) on Ply. The second is (Blue) on cut strips of the panel.
And the pump panel door only foremost.

We will work with various subjects and with all subjects, we will explore different approaches. You will find your best approach, along with your favored palette of colors.
As we progress, we will experience and develop the basic techniques of watercolor painting and realize the characteristics of the medium.
