Intuitive Watercolor Painting: Embracing Uncertainty Workshop

Join us on Saturday, August 23 from 12-3 pm at the WCDC's Lohr Gallery for a special workshop about tapping into your intuition to find expressive potential with the help of watercolor paints. In this WCDC workshop join artist Jessica Peña Heberle for a hands-on workshop that explores watercolor and mixed media as a tool for self-reflection and storytelling. Using watercolors, charcoal, colored pencils, and graphite, we’ll slow down and give form to parts of ourselves and memories by using color, texture, and organic shapes.

Watercolor is a beautifully unpredictable medium. It teaches us to let go, and make space for surprises. In this workshop we’ll experiment with mixing and layering pigment. Through this process we will be embracing the medium and exploring emotional states that we don’t always have words for. By the end of the workshop attendees will walk away with a piece of art. 

This free workshop is open to all levels and ages—no experience necessary, just a willingness to experiment! All materials will be provided. RSVP required to account for materials.
