This class is for those new to watercolors or at an intermediate level who are interested in improving current skills. Sunny will introduce you to the wide assortment of watercolor supplies.
You’ll learn how to mix your colors through a variety of painting exercises, add interesting texture, and be inspired to create more freely. Basic design and drawing skills are required. Repeat students are welcome; and if anyone has already taken the class, Sunny will adjust accordingly to include new material.
