Beginner Watercolor Art Class: Screech Owl

Create your own Screech Owl watercolor painting from sketch to finish at Bok Tower Gardens! We provide you with all the materials for the class and artist, Kelly Quinn, will share her tips and techniques to guide you step-by-step through the process. We also offer stencils for those who would rather focus on the watercolor aspect only. Participants will receive a 9″ x 12″ watercolor paper with stencils also provided. *Instructor Bio:
