Have you been afraid of watercolor, thinking that it had to conform to specific rules?  Inspired by artists such as Jeanne Carbonetti, (The Tao of Watercolor) and others, we are exploring watercolor techniques that are exciting and 'out of the box'.  Class instruction may also include topics such as: composition, design, perspective, use of values, color theory, and lessons from the masters.  This class is taught in a relaxed, and playful atmosphere.
