This introduction to watercolor will help both the beginner and those who wonder how to start. We will talk about paper, paints, brushes and needed supplies. We will cover terminology and try out techniques and tools.Donna will supply a notebook and examples of paper to each participant and will have extra brushes and paints use for the lessons if needed. Bring any watercolor supplies you might have, or if you haven't started painting yet, just bring yourself and a willingness to experiment and play with this wonderful medium.

Donna Bascom and her husband Perley have enjoyed living in picturesque East Alstead for the last 40 years. As an artist, she plays with many creative media including sewing and blacksmithing but is most drawn to painting with watercolor. Donna feels that no other medium offers the feeling that watercolor does. Favorite subjects are landscapes, nature and an occasional old barn. Examples of her work can be seen at the Walpole Artisans Coop or at www.facebook.com/donnabascomlund.
