Plein Air: Painting our Preserves

Artist and instructor Cheryl Meyer invites you to explore the beauty of the Chippewa River watershed while discovering the art of Plein Air watercolor painting. Each weekly session will rotate between a Chippewa Watershed Conservancy preserve with its own unique natural environment. Cheryl will guide you in best practices while instructing watercolor techniques that lend themselves well to plein air. Painting supplies will be provided and all experience levels are welcome.
