Class Description
Relax, sip on cocoa, and get creative while making beautiful handmade holiday cards! In this fun and festive workshop, you’ll learn techniques for painting with gouache and explore a variety of mixed media options to design unique, personalized cards. Misa Steinmetz will demonstrate gouache techniques, but you’ll have the freedom to experiment and make each card your own.
We’ll provide supplies to create up to 5 finished cards, with additional blank cards available for purchase during the workshop. Bring your ideas, your creativity, and maybe a friend or two — it’s the perfect way to create heartfelt holiday gifts.
This workshop is geared toward adults and teens, but kids 12+ are welcome with a paying adult. No experience needed — just come ready to relax, sip, and make something special!
What is the difference between watercolor & gouache (pronounced “gwash”)
Both are water-based paints applied with a brush on paper. Gouache, with its higher pigment concentration, is typically opaque, allowing for solid, vibrant colors and crisp edges. Watercolor, on the other hand, is translucent, enabling artists to create subtle washes, gradients, and layered effects.
