Description: Discover how one simple autumn leaf can inspire a season of creative exploration. In this three-session series, students will revisit the same subject through mindful drawing, expressive watercolor, and a final mixed-media exploration that brings both practices together.

The series begins with mindful drawing, using repeated patterns and the simple shape of a leaf to encourage slow observation and relaxed mark-making. In the second session, students will explore watercolor through color mixing, flowing pigments, shimmering Aurora colors, and the unexpected textures created by water and salt. The final session combines these experiences, pairing expressive watercolor leaves with mindful drawing in the surrounding negative space.

Designed for all skill levels, this series emphasizes curiosity, observation, and enjoying the creative process rather than creating a perfect finished piece. With gentle guidance and plenty of opportunities to experiment, students will discover how revisiting a familiar subject can spark new ideas, build confidence, and deepen appreciation for both drawing and watercolor. Participants will take home artwork from each session along with creative approaches they can continue exploring long after the series ends.

Description: Our perception of the visual world is dependent on light. In order to learn to paint life convincingly, one must learn how to translate into paint the light that falls upon the things we see. This workshop will focus on painting directly from life and realizing the visual effect early in the painting process, avoiding preliminary drawing. This keeps interest and energy throughout the process and conveys a sense of life and joy in the painting. Students will explore color, value, paint quality, edges, and brushstrokes in oil paint. Each morning, there will be a demonstration, and students will design their still-life setups using the provided objects, fruit, and flowers. Students may bring their own objects if they wish.  This class is appropriate for intermediate to advanced levels.

Description: Join us to learn to represent a three-dimensional form on a two-dimensional surface using color. Students learn to see the colors of the visible world in a different way than humans have been conditioned to see. They will practice seeing as the painter does by perceiving, mixing, and arranging colors to create a vibrant, light-filled image that also conveys depth and solidity. Using simple objects as models, this method brings new life and beauty to ordinary objects and expands the mind toward greater creativity and expression. We will begin with a demonstration of the method and some color mixing exercises. This class is for all levels, especially beginners. All materials are provided. The work is done in oils, but the content applies to all painting media. The course is suitable for students ages 15 and up.
