In this beginner level workshop, we will explore the basics of watercolor painting. You will learn how to control a round brush, control the level of water for varying value, mix paints to produce a wide range of colors, and create a piece of abstract art at the end with all of the skills you have learned. We hope you will leave with a sense of calm and confidence to create more artwork!

Free and open to the public. Seating is limited and registration is required. To register call: 702-507-3863.
