Welcome to watercolor! This class welcomes beginners to enjoy the sensuous and unexpected pleasures of watercolor, as you paint mindfully and creatively while studying beautiful objects from nature or inspirations from imagination. Playful exercises allow you to acquaint yourself with different brushes, the wild nature of color moving through water, and the realization that some unintended marks lead to joyful discoveries. Sighting techniques and color theory give you tools for achieving a complete artwork.

Gabi Moore holds a master’s degree in painting. She taught figure drawing and painting at Fordham University for eleven years. She later led grant-funded art projects with area public school groups as a teaching artist, including River in Motion, an outdoor sculpture that turned with the wind, and a large mural honoring veterans in the Hudson Falls American Legion.

Her love of making art and sharing its adventures continues to evolve.
