Intro to Watercolours with Lynda Giles

This evening is an introduction in watercolour. Always been curious? Lynda is the perfect instructor to help you unlock the talent within you. 

Lynda's career as an artist has included commissions, murals, juried shows and instructing classes for seniors, instruction for rehabilitation, instruction for art schools along with the Board of Education, Catholic and Public. Electives, P.D. Workshops and teaching to the curriculum, classes from Junior Kindergarten to grade 8 has been just some of her programs. Several of her adolescent student taught at her home studio have won numerous awards in local juried art shows and even been in the Robert Bateman children's calendar.

Watercolour painting techniques are taught with the same philosophy as teaching students to read and write. First you are shown the alphabet, then taught the sound. The letters form words used in sentences. Finally the  students are able to write their own stories. Step by  step instruction enables the student to complete a painting, learning techniques along the way, to enable them to eventually paint their own masterpieces! Lynda is basically self taught with an enthusiasm in believing in herself and her God given talent to share her artistic knowledge with others. The words "I can't" and "not good enough" are not in her vocabulary. Her philosophy is when you say "I can't" a door is closed, at the least try and doors will open.

Most importantly, Lynda makes learning fun! 

Cost: $45, includes all materials, an evening of instruction, and one drink.
