Glide into watercolor like a turtle on the quick current.
In this after-school art class, we’ll slow down and let the paint flow. Using watercolor and ink, we’ll explore washes, textures, and light, then add ink for definition and character. We’ll learn when to guide the journey and when to let the water carry us. This class is about curiosity, movement, and finding your own rhythm on the page.
