Step into the world of watercolor with artist and illustrator Claire Loon Baldwin. In this pen and ink watercolor class, Claire will offer techniques for sketching with pen and paint with watercolor from observation. Working from your own display of wintery flowers (which will be yours to take home with you), you’ll have a chance to deepen (or begin!) your watercolor practice. Whether you’re a beginner seeking stress-free, approachable guidance or an experienced artist looking to expand your skills, Claire’s approach to teaching provides opportunities for growth.
You’ll enjoy complimentary wine and snacks from Wanderwood throughout the afternoon.
This class will take place in Wanderwood’s comfortable heated event space on Sunday, February 15 from 12 to 3 pm. In the event of inclement weather, the backup date for this event is March 8 from 12-3.
Tickets for this class are $115, which includes all instruction and flowers to take home with you. Tickets are limited and must be purchased in advance. All sales are final and we are not able to offer refunds after purchase. You may transfer tickets to another guest if you cannot attend.
This event is limited to adult participants age 21+, or 16+ when accompanied by a parent.
