We’ll be painting the outdoors while sitting indoors. This is a mini-session for those who want to learn landscapes in a fast, fun and free manner. Accidents are allowed, and a loose abstract approach is encouraged.
Supply List:
Quality watercolor paper 140lb. small pad or 1 or 2 sheets (we will be cutting it up) Arches or Fabriano paper is good.
Several tubes of your favorite colors-( professional, rather than student
grade will bring better results.) Brands: Winsor & Newton, Holbein, Cheap Joes, etc.

Brushes—Large flat 1 inch and 1.5 inch – 2 inch flat, cheap paint brush; and medium round brush
Other supplies
Paper towels

We will not be stretching the paper but will learn techniques to flatten. We will be working somewhat small, so stretching is not needed
(You may bring reference pictures if you wish, but we will not be copying! Imagination rules.)
