Laurel Arts is excited to take our classes to the next level with the help of Laurel Hill State Park!
The abundance of beautiful sunset views at Laurel Hill State Park becomes your inspiration in this watercolor painting experience. This all-levels art class, for beginners to professionals, will begin with a short sunset/moonrise walk with a park ranger. Participants will then be given pointers by Amanda Haymans of Unwind Art to create a beautiful watercolor sunset or scenic view of their own.
