Painting – Open Studio
Wednesdays: 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM – Arts & Crafts Room

If you have ever painted and would like to join a group of amateur painters, please come join us. Even if you have never painted, get some paints and try it out, it’s a great way to enrich your retirement. There are no instructions but you’ll have the company of other painters to inspire and encourage you. We all “do our own thing”; watercolor, acrylic, oil, pencil and any other media. Get your brushes out and come practice with us!

Watercolor
Mondays: 1:30 PM to 3:30 PM in the Arts & Crafts Room

Come and create, whether you are a beginner or experienced painter.

Join us to learn a step by step approach to watercolor from a sketch or a pattern. Learn mixing color, and watercolor painting techniques from our instructor, artist Suzy Lee. Suzy has published several art books and appeared on local television demonstrating watercolor. The cost is $5.00 per class. A supply list is provided at the class.
