Intro to Watercolor 🎨
Hosted by On the Easel

Join us for a beginner-friendly watercolor workshop designed to help you feel confident and creative with this versatile medium. In this 3-hour session, you’ll learn the fundamentals of watercolor painting in a relaxed, supportive environment.

We’ll start by reviewing essential techniques—like washes, layering, blending, and brush control—then give you time to practice and get comfortable with the materials. From there, you’ll apply what you’ve learned to create your own watercolor painting, guided step-by-step by a professional artist.
