In this unique 4-hour art making adventure, you will learn to sketch the beautiful scenery and skyline of Austin! For the first portion of our workshop, we will meet in an iconic location in Downtown Austin. There, we will discuss how to sketch your surroundings and begin to document the scene in a hand-bound mixed paper journal. After we’ve sketched the scenery, we will break to travel back to the lovely (and air-conditioned!) Paper + Craft Pantry Shop for lunch and part two of our workshop. After a light lunch, we will begin the second portion of our workshop. We will discuss how to use your travel watercolor set, going over watercolor basics and how to use the set while traveling or art making around town. We will then transfer your favorite sketches to heavy watercolor paper and begin to paint! Once we’re done painting, we will add in our final details in fine point pen to bring your scenes to life! All workshop students will receive a travel sized Winsor & Newton watercolor set, a mini water brush, a fine point waterproof pen, watercolor paper, a hand-bound mixed paper journal, a pencil and an eraser to keep for your future urban sketching adventures! *A light and delicious lunch will be provided (vegetarian option will be available upon request) + in the event of rain or bad weather, the entire workshop will take place inside our studio! What you'll get (and keep): 4 hours of personalized workshop instruction Watercolor travel set + water brush Fine point pen, pencil + eraser Watercolor paper Hand-bound journal Sips & treats 10% off The Paper + Craft Pantry retail
