Flower Power in Watercolor Workshop
This class has already started. Please call to register.
Join award-winning artist and American Watercolor Society signature member Sarah Yeoman for a workshop as we explore the magic of the watercolor medium in a relaxed and entertaining atmosphere. We will work from fresh flowers and photos provided by Sarah and learn how to quickly interpret for, light and color with Sarahs signature loose and juicy painting style. Sarah will share her years of knowledge on materials, paint application, composition, life as an artist and “finding your light” in watercolor.
