About the Series: Discover watercolor from the ground up in this unique three-part workshop with Dip Into Art, LLC.

Beginning with natural earth and mineral pigments, participants will create their own handmade watercolor paints, learn foundational watercolor techniques, and use their custom palette to complete a Shenandoah Valley-inspired landscape.

During the first session, you'll learn how watercolor paint is made as you mix, grind, and prepare a custom palette of five handmade colors to take home.

In the second session, you'll build confidence with beginner-friendly techniques, including washes, color mixing, glazing, brush control, and layering.

The series concludes with a guided landscape painting inspired by the beauty of the Shenandoah Valley, using the very paints you made during the first class.

Registration includes all specialized materials, a reusable watercolor tin, handmade watercolor pans, a refillable water-brush pen, printed guides, and your completed 9" × 12" watercolor painting.

No prior watercolor experience is needed just bring your curiosity and enjoy the process of creating paint and art from the ground up.

This series is limited to a maximum of 20 participants; it will not proceed with fewer than 12.
