No matter where you are in your artistic journey, join us for this rare opportunity to observe Paul's style and approach to watercolor. Reach the next level of artistic confidence and ability as Paul leads you through an adventure in design, color, value, textures and patterns. Through informal lectures, discussion, demonstrations and critiques you will be guided in refining your personal painting style. Come prepared to find logical and creative answers to your watercolor problems. If watercolor is your passion, then this highly energized painting workshop is for you. Paul's stress-free, positive approach toward the act of painting will inspire you to loosen up and have lots of fun in your creative process!
