Join Cindy Briggs for a 2‑day workshop focuses on translating what you see into expressive watercolor sketches and studies. Using flowing line-work, you’ll discover how to get into the flow as you design, capture essential shapes and movement, then layer in unexpected color that creates depth, atmosphere, and connection to each experience. Working across a variety of subjects, you’ll develop a natural rhythm between drawing and painting— creating work that feels dynamic, intuitive, and personal. This workshop is great for all levels of experience - for artists who want to capture their travel experiences and everyday moments in minutes rather than hours.
