Watercolor Class was Pear-fect!

This was the class example I prepared
What a wonderful group of artists!

Many thanks to my first students of the year for making Art A La Carte Watercolor Class a success at The Apprentice Art Studio! I was absolutely tickled and amazed at the beauty that was created in just three sessions, yes three! WOW! You gals are becoming wonderful artists. We had Caramel Apple Tea  and Cranberry Vanilla Wonderland- delicious, and cozy fall tasting! We laughed and had warm friendly conversation! It was truly a great experience for me.
Here are some pictures of what we did:

Here is what my students are saying:

 " I feel successful, thank you so much!" 

 " I painted that, wow, I really like it!" 

"This has been great! I have always wanted to learn how to do this and now I do!"


" When is your next class?"


Thank you for being brave and trusting me to guide you and share what I know and love. This has been a dream come true and I am so glad I got to share it with you all! A wonderful start to an amazing year of art!
