Winterfruit still life with watercolor

Instructor: Hannah Day

Dates: 6 weeks on Thursdays, beginning January 14th - February 18th, 2027

Time: 1:00pm - 4:00pm

Price: $300 + $30 Materials fee

In this six session course, students will learn a unique approach to watercolor, intended to address the frustration that many feel with this challenging medium. The class will focus on strengthening one’s observational skills, while learning a watercolor technique that teaches the artist to see value and color. 

Throughout the course, we will work on 3 paintings, progressing through simpler to more complex forms. With a mix of demonstrations and individualized instruction, students of all experience levels will develop new skills and have a meaningful creative experience. 

Our unifying subject will be seasonal winter produce, presented thoughtfully arranged with complimentary colors, patterns, and man made surfaces to contrast their organic forms. 

Instructor Hannah Day is a passionate produce lover and botanical painter and will share her unique approach to rendering botanicals. This class will work from life, practicing observational drawing, in addition to watercolor technique. 

With six class sessions, participants will have the opportunity to develop their skills and build muscle memory with a medium that often feels like it has a mind of its own. 

Beginning artists and repeat students are welcome.

All materials are provided, but students are encouraged to bring their own pallet if they have one.
