Build skills and confidence with a week of nature-inspired watercolor painting.
Relax with friends and fellow creative teens in a no-judgment environment. Every morning for one week, we'll create nature-inspired paintings like botanicals, animals, and landscapes. Using logical explanations to help you understand how the medium actually works, Aunty Rebecca will help you master watercolor in a way you never knew before!
What’s Included in Your Experience
All supplies included: Paints, palettes, brushes, paper - it's all included at the studio. We use high-quality paints and paper that will blow your mind compared to what you've used before. Weak and chalky paints are nowhere to be found here! You'll get to use the same stuff Rebecca does to create your own vibrant paintings.
Pre-designed outline for a stress-free start: Drawing skills can be a barrier to those wanting to learn how to paint, so Rebecca designs outlines by hand specifically with beginner painters in mind. Of course, students are welcome to draw their own ideas or add their own creativity to the design! Projects will vary & will be voted on by students the first day. Photos shown are examples of some of the project choices. For more advanced students, Rebecca is delighted to provide specific tips for increasing the challenge.
A Creative Artist Studio Setting: Join Aunty Rebecca at her Waipahu studio garage, where you'll get to see all kinds of things behind the scenes of a working artist. Ask all the questions you want about the art and design field!
Coaching from an Artist-Teacher: Rebecca's background includes an art education degree and many years of teaching in community settings. She loves helping her students understand how to make and improve their art no matter their past
