Advance Registration RequiredStep into the Santa Fe landscape with a sketchbook in one hand and a thoughtfully limited watercolor palette in the other.

Guided by award-winning artist Antonio Darden, this course weaves color theory, value study, and one- and two-point perspective into a creative practice that’s equal parts travel diary and work of art. 🎨🌵
This class will cover, color theory, value study and one-point and two-point perspective. This class is for beginners to intermediate, even if you haven't painted before you will really enjoy this class.
