When we observe the world around us in sketches and illustration, we see so much more detail. Learn drawing and watercolor painting techniques that will allow you to capture and communicate what you observe. This creative class will guide students of all skill levels to closely observe nature and in turn create beautiful illustrations inspired by the desert during the monsoon season.

Please provide your own art materials. Recommended art materials (Substitute as needed):

two separate water containers

Watercolors and palette

paintbrushes (small, medium)

watercolor paper

printer paper

pencil and eraser

paper towels

Instructor - Devon Meyer

As an artist, Devon is constantly inspired by nature. The elaborate patterns and gorgeous colors seen in plants, birds or flowers are reflected in the work she does. Watercolor is her favorite medium but she also works in oil, charcoal, pen and ink and colored pencil.
