In our fast-paced lives, we often forget to stop and really look at the beauty that surrounds us. Take some time in this paint class with Casey Cheuvront to tune in to your creative instincts, engage your “painter’s eye,” and deepen your connection to the natural beauty of Yosemite. Students will enjoy the playful, experimental process of painting and may be surprised by how easy and relaxing watercolor can be. Beginners will learn basic watercolor techniques; more advanced artists will focus on the nuances of scene, composition, line and color as it pertains to Yosemite’s stunning, unique landscape.
