Join me this summer for a relaxing and inspiring outdoor watercolor workshop in the heart of Bryant Park! We’ll spend the morning capturing the vibrant blooms, sunlit trees, and the charming rhythm of park life — all set against a lively backdrop of cityscapes and passing crowds. With expressive brushstrokes and fresh watercolor techniques, you’ll learn how to bring everyday scenes to life on paper.

  • Unwind and enjoy a creative morning in nature

  • Learn new watercolor skills with live demos and personal guidance

  • Connect with a fun, supportive group of fellow art lovers
