Creating Watercolor Portraits

August 17- 31, 2026

Mondays, 3 weeks, 6-8 PM

Instructor: Alain McAlister

Are you intimidated by painting people? Learn the tips and tricks of capturing someone’s likeness or create your own character in this welcoming watercolor workshop. We will explore color and light, creating dynamic compositions, and creating a stunning portrait in any style. This class is good for beginner and intermediate watercolor artists. Our portraits will be loose and playful, emphasizing personality rather than realism.
