Tucked away in treasured pockets throughout the garden, you’ll find glimmering ponds, streams, and waterfalls. These areas offer a fascinating display of light, color, and movement that sparks inspiration for the artist in all of us. Summer is in full swing!

So, join us and stay cool, while escape the heat inside an indoor setting and painting in watercolor, gouache or color pencil many of the ponds, streams and waterfalls located throughout the garden. Under the guidance of Carlos Gallostra, students will quickly develop dynamic and vivid illustrations in a short amount of time, while mastering methods in tonal shading, coloring, and layering. All levels are welcome!
