This watercolor workshop invites participants to slow down and observe nature’s shapes, textures, and colors up close. Using fresh plant references, I’ll guide the group step-by-step through drawing and painting a botanical subject.

Participants will learn how to build soft watercolor layers, mix fresh greens, and add expressive ink lines for detail. Along the way, we’ll talk about form, contrast, and the joy of noticing —turning an ordinary plant into a moment of wonder on paper.

This workshop encourages focus, creativity, and presence — perfect for relaxing and connecting as a team while learning a new visual language.

All materials provided. No experience needed.
