______________________
We are celebrating the elegant Sandhill Crane 3/26/23!
There are 25-30 thousand of these graceful birds that migrate through my Colorado valley. I can't wait to see these beauties each year in their natural environment.
We will just be using Ink, White and Red to keep it simple and students can choose to paint a single Crane or 2 depending on experience. Class will also be recorded for future reference!
If you are a first-time Brush Painter, Leigha will meet you 30 min before class to go over basic brush holding, preparation and loading so, new students will have a little ink play before class.
