Merrymeeting Community & Adult Education

***THIS WORKSHOP HAS BEEN POSTPONED TO MAY 31ST 2025.

Explore nature through a series of art exercises designed to spark creativity and mindfulness. This all-levels class begins with a nature walk to gather inspiration and draw what we see in our sketchbooks, and finishes with longer art exercises in the studio. We’ll explore techniques for exploring the outdoors with all our senses, and drawing landscapes using watercolor pencils. Students will gain a variety of techniques for working quickly, accurately, and creatively, all while connecting to nature. Students can either buy themselves the required materials - the materials list is linked here - or they can buy material kits from the Mix, an art store in Brunswick (here is a link to a student-grade kit, and here is a link to an artist-grade kit). *Special Note: Meet at a nearby trailhead then go to Topsham location.
