Class Experience

Do you want to improve your watercolor skills?

Do you want to learn to draw and paint animals?

Do you want to grow in your appreciation of nature and the animal kingdom?

Then check out this weekly watercolor class where every week, I teach you to draw and paint a majestic ocean animal in a realistic style with watercolor paints.

Students will learn drawing techniques to help them draw animals on their
own. They will learn watercolor and general painting techniques to help them
paint on their own. You will also learn interesting facts
about each animal we draw. 

Art is a form of connection, and as students
paint these creatures they will develop a sense of respect and appreciation
for them and for all of nature. My students will learn tools to help express
themselves creatively while learning in a fun environment.
