River Arts in Damariscotta is offering a new class in watercolor painting for beginners and intermediate painters. “Watercolor with Erica Qualey” will run for four weeks on Sunday afternoons from 1 to 4 p.m. starting Jan. 25.

Participants will receive a suggested materials list from the instructor and will be expected to bring their materials to the first class along with photos and/or sketches that they are interested in painting. The fee for all four weeks is $180.

Open to anyone with beginner or intermediate painting skills, the session will focus on: exploring and developing techniques, learning the characteristics of watercolor and the different tools commonly used, creating interesting compositions using sketches and reference photos, and the process of planning and creating a watercolor painting.

Participants will have weekly demonstrations and participate in creating quick studies to help build technique. The majority of class time will be spent on individual projects with one-on-one instructor feedback.

Registration forms are available online at www.riverartsme.org/classes, or by calling River Arts at 207-563-1507, or email info@riverartsme.org.
