About the Workshop

Watercolor Fun and Free is a motivational workshop for beginning, as well as experienced painters. Karlyn offers enthusiastic, informational demonstrations and gives individual help enriched by sharing her original finished work. She is an upbeat instructor, who helps the students cultivate a loose, free style of working. She teaches with tireless energy and her high–spirited humorous teaching style makes beginners feel comfortable and challenges the advanced student. The real emphasis is on each student’s individual expression and development of their own painting style.

Karlyn’s enthusiastic, hands–on instruction will inspire you to paint with more confidence and find your own artistic vision. The week will feature floral, landscape and abstract themes. Everyday will begin with a demonstration, followed by individual help and a critique when completed. Karlyn loves to send students home with finished paintings.
