Merrymeeting Community & Adult Education

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 - a materials list will be provided - or they can buy material kits from the instructor (additional $23 fee). *Special Note: Meet at a nearby trailhead then go to Topsham location.
