Take a quiet moment this holiday season to slow down and create. Join us at Life is Succulent for a cozy, beginner-friendly watercolor workshop where we’ll paint a festive Christmas wreath surrounded by the scent of evergreens. This gentle class is about reconnecting with creativity, not chasing perfection and giving ourselves a little pause for calm and color before the holidays.
Watercolor can sometimes feel intimidating: it dries fast, the rules seem strict, and one misplaced brushstroke might feel like it ruins everything. This workshop is designed to ease that worry. We’ll explore the playful, forgiving side of watercolor, along with other mediums that create similar beautiful, flowing effects.
In this relaxed two-hour session, we’ll cover a few simple basics while painting our festive wreaths, giving ourselves permission to break the rules and enjoy the process.
You’ll get to experiment with:
1.Traditional watercolor
2.Watercolor pencils
3.Watercolor brush pens
4.water-soluble wax crayons
5.Gentle, pressure-free techniques that invite calm and creativity
While spending time together and soaking in the sense of community, we’ll serve each participant a rich Swiss cup of hot cocoa, making the experience even warmer and more festive.
What’s Included:
1. All tools and materials (no need to bring anything)
2. A small, supportive group setting (max 10 participants)
3. One Swiss cup of hot cocoa to enjoy while painting
4. Personal guidance and plenty of space to explore at your own pace
