What you'll learn
Watercolor, made simple
Learn to paint loose, glowing watercolors of the White Mountains: aspens, pines, sunsets and wildflowers. Two relaxed hours, a local artist walking you through every step, and a finished painting to take home.
Classes walk through color mixing, brush loading, and paper saturation, with each session focusing on a specific technique or subject. You work through guided exercises that demonstrate how different brush angles create varied marks and how timing affects blending. Instruction adapts to individual pace, allowing beginners to focus on foundational control while more experienced painters explore expressive approaches.
After completing a series of classes, you'll notice improved control over color transparency, more deliberate brushwork, and the ability to plan compositions that take advantage of watercolor's fluid qualities. Paintings dry lighter than they appear when wet, edges soften or stay crisp depending on timing, and layering builds depth without overworking the surface.
All necessary supplies and materials are available on-site for convenience, so you don't need to invest in brushes, paints, or paper before attending. The relaxed studio atmosphere supports creative risk-taking, and small group sizes allow for personalized feedback during each session.
