HOME PORTRAITS IN WATERCOLOR

Bring a cherished home to life in watercolor at this guided art session led by Cecilia of Cecilia Rae Artistry. Whether you're painting your childhood house, current home, or a meaningful place in someone else's life, you'll create an 8×10 finished portrait to keep or gift. The process is beginner-friendly: submit a photo of your chosen home about a week before class, and Cecilia will prepare a printed sketch. During the session, you'll transfer the outline onto watercolor paper using carbon transfer, then learn to build natural color palettes and paint details like windows, shadows, and greenery with layered watercolor techniques. This workshop works well for anyone wanting to try watercolor without prior experience—the pre-sketched outline lets you focus on learning color and technique rather than drawing. You'll walk away with a completed, polished artwork and practical tips for displaying or gifting your creation. Plan to submit your registration and home photo at least one week before your chosen class date.
