Have you ever wanted to learn how to paint in watercolor? Have you ever said
that you can’t even draw a stick figure? Award winning artist and Art Guild
member, Sheryl Reeser is teaching a four-session class for those with little or no
experience, and you don’t have to draw the picture!
Sheryl’s four-session watercolor class for beginners will be held in September on
the following dates: Tuesdays, the 14th and 21st from 1:00-4:00; and Thursdays,
the 16th from 9:00-12:00; and the 23rd from 1:00-4:00. The cost of the four
classes will be $140.00 for members and $160.00 for guests. For those with no
basic supplies, the cost will be determined, payable to the instructor the day of
the class.
Watercolor basics will be taught including advice on paper, brushes, and paint to
create quality watercolor paintings. You will learn techniques for mixing and
applying the paint. Sheryl will take you step-by-step to paint a beautiful picture
called “Bluebird and Blackberries” from a pattern by artist Susan Scheewe Brown.
Reeser knows exactly how an inexperienced person feels when tackling a new
skill. When Sheryl retired to Fairfield Glade in 1995, she wanted to learn how to
paint in watercolor, but had never painted in any medium. She joined the Art
Guild and started taking classes and reading lots of books. Her instructors were
both local and nationally known artists like Mary Whyte.
Sheryl credits local watercolor artist, Le Voss, as her mentor. Le encouraged her
to teach watercolor classes. Reeser, a retired teacher, began teaching classes in
the year 2000 and has taught all levels. The beginners, however, are special to
her, because of her own journey in watercolor.
