Class Description:

This workshop series is designed for the watercolor curious and beginner-level painters who are ready to try out a new medium in the new year! Maybe you've dabbled in watercolor before and found it difficult, maybe you've been interested in it but never picked up a brush. If any of those sound like you, this class series is here to help you get started in the world of watercolor in a constructive, supportive environment. 

Over the course of three 3 hour classes, we will break down the steps of creating a painting from start to finish. Each class will include two distinct parts: introductory watercolor education and independent painting with support from artist and instructor, Annie Brown.

In each class, we will cover new beginner-level techniques, color mixing tricks, and specialized materials. You will learn about how some of the world's most famous artists utilized watercolors while finding your own creative style and voice in the medium. This series has a smaller group size than a regular watercolor class so that we can foster two things: community and extra individual assistance. We won't do critiques, we will do constructive learning through experimentation, education, and play. 

At the end of this series, my hope is that you will have a better understanding and newfound appreciation for what can be a truly magical medium. The next step in your creative journey starts here!

Material Info:
Materials will be provided during the classes (a small selection of brushes, paint, and paper). If you have watercolor materials from home, you are welcome to bring those too! This will be a great way to get to know your paints even further. We also sell some watercolor supplies in the studio that you are welcome to check out.

About the Artist:

Annie Brown is a Los Angeles-based artist with a love for works on paper. Her work in watercolor, colored pencil, and charcoal focuses on contemporary realism that highlights the beauty of the objects, places, and creatures we see every day. She believes in the accessibility of art and that workshops should be educational with plenty of room for exploration and play.
