Let’s be honest—nature does design better than we ever could. The speckled turquoise of a Killdeer egg, the soft mossy greens of a Red-winged Blackbird’s clutch, the freckled mystery of a Caspian Tern’s shell… each one is a tiny masterpiece. In this hands-on watercolor workshop, you’ll learn how to capture that quiet magic with paint, paper, and your own creative spark.
Led by Sacramento-based artist and educator Jennifer Peart, Watercoloring the Wild is beginner-friendly but designed for anyone who loves beauty, detail, and a little artistic adventure. You’ll learn how to layer color, build softness and contrast, and bring delicate textures to life—all while slowing down and tuning in to the rhythms of the natural world.
We’ll provide everything you need: professional-quality paints, brushes, paper, and reference images. If you’re the journaling type, feel free to bring your favorite sketchbook or tools. At the end, you’ll leave with your own finished nature journal pages, plus the confidence to keep exploring watercolor on your own.
Your ticket includes:
• A 2-hour (give or take) guided watercolor session
• All materials provided
• A complimentary splash of wine to kick off your creativity
• A nature-inspired keepsake you created yourself
