Beginning Watercolor: Water, Color & Brushwork

Discover the fundamentals of watercolor in this beginner-friendly workshop. Learn how water, pigment, and timing work together to create beautiful effects, from soft washes and flowing color transitions to crisp edges and delicate textures.

Through guided exercises and a nature-inspired painting project, participants will explore essential techniques, including wet-on-wet painting, glazing, negative painting, and dry brush. The emphasis is on experimentation, building confidence, and understanding how watercolor behaves on paper.
