Watercolor: Imaginary Maps

Enjoy a relaxing evening getting lost in the luminous colors of watercolor paints in this Create Calm class. Participants will be guided step-by-step to create beautiful imaginary "maps" in the color scheme of your choice. Everyone will receive a 9" x 12" piece of paper with the option to paint one large piece or divide their paper to create two to four smaller paintings. Paintings are lovely framed or make fun cards. No experience necessary - if you can doodle, you can create a piece of art and benefit from this mindful technique.
Create Calm classes are taught by staff instructors and designed to allow participants to experience simple projects in a soothing environment. Each class will focus on beginning methods in a variety of art mediums to help students of all levels tap into our own innate ability to create a state of calm while working with our hands. Expect the first part of these classes to include instruction while the second part is reserved for gentle music and quiet work time to encourage the mind to rest, reflect, and relax in a quiet community.
