Mindful Watercolor: Water and Sky

Enjoy a watercolor session in a spacious, unhurried way as we explore watercolor through the calming language of sky and water. In this 2‑hour session, we’ll slow our pace, tune into subtle shifts of light and color, and let watercolor become a practice in presence rather than perfection.

We’ll start with simple, sensory warm‑ups that help you notice how water moves and interacts with light. Throughout the class, your instructor will offer grounding cues to help you stay connected to your breath, your body, and the quiet pleasure of watching color bloom and layer on paper.

This workshop is welcoming to absolute beginners as well as returning painters who want to reconnect with watercolor in a more mindful way. You’ll leave with a finished sky‑and‑water study and a refreshed sense of spaciousness to carry into the rest of your day.

All materials provided. Just bring yourself and a willingness to slow down and explore.

This class is taught by a multidisciplinary teaching artist (Jules) whose work is deeply rooted in observation, appreciation for nature, and sensory engagement. Much of Jules's creative practice centers on water, sky, and landscape forms. They are continually inspired by the quiet shifts in light and color that happen in everyday environments. As someone who works across painting, sculpture, fiber, and craft, Jules is drawn to processes that invite slowing down, noticing details, and building a relationship with materials.

12 years and older may attend with an adult. Over 16 may attend on their own.
