Find Your Watercolor Class

Beginner Watercolor

Start with the essentials in a supportive class designed for new painters. Learn how to choose and use watercolor materials, mix colors, control water, and create simple washes. Guided exercises help you practice each technique at your own pace, so you can focus on the process and gain confidence before moving into more detailed work.

Watercolor Fundamentals

Strengthen your watercolor skills with lessons in value, edges, layering, and composition. Practice how paint and water behave on paper, then apply those ideas to guided studies. This class suits painters who know the basics and want a clearer foundation for making deliberate choices in their work.

Color Mixing Workshop

Learn to mix colors with more intention and understand how pigments interact on paper. Exercises cover warm and cool shifts, neutral mixes, and ways to create a cohesive palette. You will have time to test combinations and apply them in a small study, with instruction that keeps the process approachable.

Florals in Watercolor

Explore floral subjects through simple shapes, layered washes, and varied brush marks. Work from a guided example to practice petals, leaves, and gentle color transitions without needing precise botanical drawing. The class offers structure and room for personal choices, making it suitable for painters who want to loosen up or learn a new subject.

Coastal Watercolor

Use familiar coastal subjects to practice atmospheric washes, soft edges, and reflections. Lessons may include skies, water, sand, and simple shoreline forms, with attention to how color and value suggest distance. Build a painting step by step and learn techniques you can use when sketching scenes around St. Petersburg.

Private Art Lessons

Work one-on-one with an instructor on the watercolor skills or subject matter you want to explore. A private lesson can focus on fundamentals, feedback on a painting in progress, or a specific technique. Share your experience and goals ahead of time so the session can be shaped around your needs and preferred pace.
