Join us for another watercolor class from the amaz

Join us for another watercolor class from the amazing Teresa Cook!

Explore the expressive possibilities of watercolor on Yupo, a synthetic, non-absorbent surface that transforms the way pigment moves, lifts, and layers. In this 2-hour workshop, artist Teresa Cook will guide students through foundational techniques unique to Yupo, including floating washes, controlled lifting, texture creation, and layering for depth.

Participants will begin with guided experimentation to understand how watercolor behaves differently on this surface before developing a finished urban-inspired composition focused on light, value, and atmosphere. Teresa will demonstrate how to use contrast and simplified architectural forms to create dimension and visual impact — emphasizing both control and creative surrender.

This workshop is designed for both beginners and intermediate artists. Beginners will build confidence through shape and value, while more experienced painters can explore perspective, glazing, and atmospheric depth.

Students will leave with:
    •    A stronger understanding of watercolor on Yupo
    •    Techniques for correcting and lifting pigment
    •    A completed painting focused on light and structure
    •    Greater confidence in expressive mark-making

All supplies provided unless otherwise noted.

We are excited to announce next month's book 'Circ

We are excited to announce next month's book 'Circe' by Madeline Miller for our next "A Seat at Our Table' Book Club.

If you did not attend February's discussion of The Vanishing Half, it was such a success we are making it a regular thing.

Circe was chosen because March is Woman's History Month and Circe is a feminist, mythic retelling of the life of the misunderstood sorceress from Homer's Odyssey.

Pick up your book today at Happy Medium Books Cafe for 20% off and join us March 31st!
