Adult Art Camp Series: Watercolor Pouring Method: Adults can go to art camp too! Have fun with this one day watercolor workshop as we dive into the world of “the pouring method”. This method allows artists to pour liquid watercolor layer by layer, and let loose a little. With this technique, artists will choose their subject matter and receive 3 liquid watercolors to “pour” onto their papers to create stunning artworks. This workshop is great for those that want to try something completely different, as this does not use a paintbrush in a standard painting format. Watching paint dry has literally never been more fun! Come try this awesome practice of watercolor pouring!
