Coming Spring 2021: Watercolour Workshop and Lunch in Gagetown!

Stay tuned for details, or call us at (506) 488-6000 if you are interested! We offer private classes for groups between 3 and 10 people in whatever workshop structure the group prefers.

Past Workshops:

Saturday afternoons 1:30pm - 4:30pm: Single class

Thursday Paint Nights 3 hours: Join us for a guided painting exploration of casual fun and technique building, while sampling our unique hand blended teas.

 Skill Building Watercolour Series: Four classes of 3 hours.

Course Description:

Watercolour is a graceful and translucent medium. Light emanates from underneath the surface, which connects the painter and viewer to the multiple layers of connected colours. Our courses will teach the basic fundamental principles that relate to all great design and composition, as well as techniques specific to watercolour. You will have the opportunity to put these principles and techniques into practice, so they will start to become intuitive. Register for a single class or a series. We also welcome private art parties for birthdays, special occasions, bridal parties, community groups, and corporate team-building.
