Basic Watercolor Technique Bootcamp 2

Tuesday, August 5, 2025
Upstairs Classroom
10am – 2pm, with a working lunch
$50

Continue your watercolor journey by diving deeper into the art of combining techniques. In this hands-on workshop, you’ll review and apply the methods learned in Bootcamp 1 to create dynamic, multi-layered compositions. Together, we’ll revisit technique “recipe cards,” explore inspiring artist examples, and deconstruct how multiple techniques interact in compelling ways. You’ll then experiment independently, blending your favorite approaches to craft one or two finished 7″x10″ (or similar-sized) pieces. Leave Bootcamp 2 with greater confidence and a deeper understanding of how to create cohesive watercolor works using multiple techniques. All supplies will be provided.
