Garden Leaves Workshop 6/1 // 5-7pm

Join Sophie for an evening of painting garden leaves!  In this workshop, we will use spring leaves to explore basic botanical illustration and watercolor techniques.  Sophie will demonstrate how to paint multiple types of leaves and guide the class in color matching. 

A basic understanding of watercolor is encouraged but not required.  This class is designed to deepen our connection with nature and to promote observation of the botanical world around us. 

By the end of class, everyone will have created a finished painting and have the confidence to create more!
