ArtWave Youth Workshop: Horizon Watercolor Lanscapes

Saturday, Nov. 22, 2025 | 2:00-3:30pm

In this session of ArtWave, ages 11 to 14 are invited to join us in the OMAM Classroom to create a watercolor landscape inspired by artist J.M.W. Turner, and learn about horizon line, color theory, and composition.

With this watercolor piece, we will focus more on the general shapes, forms, colors, and suggestions of objects, rather than the fine details, just like Turner. We will talk about how this was revolutionary for his time, and how we can achieve an emotion inspiring piece with just the suggestion of the wildlife in the landscapes.

Tuition for this 90-minute program includes all supplies. Seats are limited, so signing up in advance is highly encouraged!

Registration will close when workshop is full.
