See Yosemite as you never have seen it before, in full color with all its autumnal glory. Painter John Hewitt will introduce you to the techniques professionals use to organize and arrange a painting that will demand attention. While the most important point of this plein air workshop is to have fun, supportive class check-ins will encourage artists of all levels to hone their watercolor skills and perspectives. Learn to infuse a painting with color depicting the moods of Yosemite Valley.
