"Message in a Bottle" Watercolor Mastery Workshop

Watercolor Mastery Workshop "Message in a Bottle" Designed for artists of all skill levels. Capture the Story - Paint the Feeling There is something captivating about objects that have been shaped by time and tide. A weathered bottle, a collection of shells, a handful of sand - ordinary items on their own, yet together they tell a story. In Message in a Bottle, you'll learn how to transform simple items found on a beach into a compelling watercolor painting filled with story, design, and visual interest.
