If you are a complete beginner all you need to start are a couple of good drawing pencils, a rubber, and a drawing pad.

Who can attend? Open to all skill levels, from beginners to experienced artists. The instructor is there to help everyone.

Title or Location: Resemblance
I often get told that I look like my mother, I take it as such a compliment every time. She?s beautiful. But I resemble my mother in other ways, too, My anxiety probably resembles her anxiety just as much as my hands resemble her hands.

Title or Location: Capitola Dreaming
I was thinking about Capitola and the last time I visited the iconic beach with its brightly colored beach houses. While daydreaming of this most loved vacation retreat I was exploring new techniques with my watercolors. This painting was the result of that thought process and experiment.

Title or Location: Buddies
Buddies is a watercolor done on textured watercolor board. The substrate gives the painting a "fuzziness" that softened the scene.It was a such a heart softening situation. A boy and his dog, the peacefulness of sleep, and a furbaby flashing his toe beans are irresistible.
