Watercolor Landscape Notecards – Saturday, September 27, 2025

Learn how to use wet-on-wet watercolor techniques to create gorgeous abstract landscape art.  Participants can choose up to 6 of their pieces to mount with complimentary “framing” onto notecards. As time permits, participants will be encouraged to write thoughtful notes and prepare them for sending, using sealing wax.

Students will take all of their art home, as well as materials for 6 mailable cards, if not completed during class time.

Your instructor will provide all materials needed:

• Watercolor paints, brushes and water
• pre-cut watercolor paper and framing cardstock pre-folded notecards, and envelopes 
• Sealing wax and the tools to use it will be available to use if desired

Instructor Marcia Dressel is a retired teacher-librarian with a lingering passion for picture books. She enjoys creativity in many forms including the kitchen arts, watercolor painting, old school correspondence, community choir, and play-acting.
