Hammond Castle, Plein Air Class with Sue Wheeler

From stick figure doodlers to first-rate talents, join us for a seaside, Plein Air sketch class with Sue Wheeler of Arts Abound in Magnolia. All skill levels are welcome! This two-hour session includes a 30-minute beginner sketch lesson. All you need to bring is a sketchbook, pencils and an eraser. We also encourage you to bring a folding chair and sunscreen. Sue has studied under numerous artists to learn watercolor, acrylic painting, cold wax & oil, and collage.  Sue’s philosophy on the creative process encourages you to be concerned less about the final product and instead to enjoy the journey of creativity and get lost in the moment. Once you find yourself in your work, you may just surprise yourself!

Attendance is $20 per class.
