Summon the spooky season with a series of flying creatures rendered in watercolor! Led by instructor Cheryl Meyer, you’ll focus on capturing the form and personality of birds & bats through expressive painting techniques. Each week in this 3-session course will feature a different harbinger of the dark, and this class will guide you in bringing them to life on paper.

Perfect for beginner to intermediate artists, we’ll explore watercolor fundamentals such as wet-on-wet, layering, and texture while also learning how to sketch dynamic forms, render feathers and wings, and create harmonious backgrounds.

The class will be held weekly from 2-5 pm on Thursdays, October 9, 23, and 30 in the Idonea Hersee Classroom at Art Reach, 111 E. Broadway, Mt. Pleasant, MI. You may select individual classes or enroll in the series for a discounted rate!
