In this virtual workshop, we will be stepping into our backyard gardens to take a closer look at several pollinators and their friends: the butterflies and the bees. During this two-and-a-half-hour workshop, you will learn watercolor techniques for painting a variety of botanical forms, as well as how to incorporate markers to achieve detailed, dynamic effects. Instructor Leana Fischer will also share a brief tour of her studio space and discuss her creative process.
No prior painting experience is necessary to participate.
