Watercolor Exploration with Patrick O’Brien
Continue with watercolors in 2027 with Patrick. Beginners and previous experience welcome. Join us for another month of snowy palettes, softened edges, and luminous washes as we explore new subject matter and refine the skills you’ve already practiced. New students welcome.
What to expect
Weekly 2-hour sessions focused on composition, color mixing, and watercolor techniques suited for winter themes.
Guided demonstrations and step-by-step instruction that reinforce last month’s lessons: wet-on-wet blending, glazing, lifting, and creating soft-edge snow effects.
New projects: frosted branches, reflective ice, distant winter skies, and cozy window scenes with warm interior light.
Individual feedback and supportive critiques to help you progress at your own pace.
Supply review and recommended additions for January projects.

Class format
Small class size for individualized feedback
Demonstrations by Patrick, followed by guided practice
