  Watercolor classes are taught year round for all levels of student experience. SEE: SUPPLY LIST.

These classes give beginning students an easier approach to watercolor painting utilizing a "loose" technique" and a small palette. They allow intermediate students to experiment with mixed media using watercolor together with oil pastel, pencil, ink washes and other tools. They also offer intermediate and advanced painters a chance to learn this "loose" technique, in which a greater emphasis is placed on the "flow" of the water and pigment.

Depending on individual skills, students may be working in still life, landscape, floral and botanical or abstract format and in the process, learn more technical aspects of watercolor painting as well as artistic considerations such as color, composition and value.

Come to San Miguel de Allende and join the numbers of students, both new and returning, who find the atmosphere inspiring and the classes exciting in translating experience into composition.
