Create Art Backwards

Flip your expectations on their head and try a whole new approach to your art in this creative workshop! Designed for artists of all skill levels, this class will introduce you to a different way of seeing and creating your art. The concept is simple: use watercolor to create vibrant pops of color on your paper, then draw on the shapes and textures that form. By using your favorite drawing pen or colored pencils, you can carve out shapes and patterns in a process that feels intuitive and inspiring. You’ll be amazed at how a bit of watercolor can spark ideas and give weight to your drawings and doodles!
