De-stress, unwind, and enjoy the almost-magical calm that comes from painting with watercolors. This week's inspirations will honor April Fools' Day -- whimsical, humorous, and maybe a little silly.
This is not an art class -- it's a chance to be creative and relax while enjoying each other's company in an encouraging environment.
See the colors flow from your imagination to the paper and let your worries drift away for a while.

What we offer:
Acompáñanos en Junk Journaling, donde usaremos materiales de manualidades y recuerdos personales para crear o trabajar en tu propio Junk Journal. Te proporcionaremos materiales básicos de manualidades y retales, ¡pero te animamos a que traigas tus propios materiales!
¿Qué es Junk Journaling? Es similar al scrapbooking, pero menos elaborado y estructurado. Aquí, usaremos retales y fragmentos de materiales encontrados para expresarnos y preservar recuerdos. Piensa en recibos de compras de un viaje, talones de entradas de cine, un trozo de folleto, etc.
