Tuesdays, July 12 – August 2, 10:00 am – 1:00 pm – The Garden in Watercolor
View the summer garden with an eye for color, mood, texture and painting in this series of classes at the Berkshire Botanical Garden beginning Tuesday, July 12, from 10 – 1, and continuing through Tuesday, August 2. Learn the basics of composition and color through the medium of watercolor. Each class will begin with explanation and demonstrations by the instructor. Most of each session will be devoted to painting with the instructor providing input and responding to questions. No prior experience is necessary and beginners are welcome. You may attend the whole series or pick and choose individual classes. However, everyone is encouraged to come to the first meeting when the basics of watercolor, paint, brushes and paper will be explained.
