Location: Temescal Works, 490 43rd St. Oakland - located on Telegraph and 43rd St. in Temescal, near MacArthur BART. Street parking is plentiful. This is a beautiful co-working space that is comfortable and accessible.  It has a secure entrance so late students will have to request special entry.

Details: The format of this class will start with a detailed demonstration by Sophie, followed by work time and individual consultations.  NO MATERIALS will be provided, please bring your own supplies.  Sophie will provide source images.

Materials: please bring your own supplies. I have everything you need stocked in my shop, Sophie Tivona Paper: 470 49th St. You can purchase all materials for around $60. Here are the basics required for the class:

- paints: the more colors the better in my opinion!  Bring what you have but make sure you have the following colors: red, yellow, green, blue, black, white and brown.

- paper: must be watercolor paper, preferably a block. Cold press or hot press will work.  Size is up to you, I like 6"x8" or 9"x12"

- water cup

- brushes: size 4 or 6 round recommended. It's nice to have a couple of options and make sure one brush has a fine point.

- pencil with eraser

- paper towels: bring one or two per class.

- artist's tape: not required but helpful
