DIY Mini Travel Watercolor Palette w/ Peerless Watercolors
July 6, Sat, 1:00-4:00 pm
Create the perfect little travel watercolor palette using Peerless Watercolors at our FREE drop-in event. Assemble a sleek, portable watercolor palette that can easily slip into your journal or even an envelope, it’s that small, but packs a powerful range of colors. Peerless Watercolors are known for their intense, beautiful hues and ease of use. These handmade paints are delivered on a specially formulated sheet of paper. The sheet does not disintegrate as normal paper would and when you are all done painting, just allow the sheet to dry and the paint is perfectly ready to go for the next time! We'll have an assortment of colors to mount (choose up to 6) into a folded card to create your very own travel palette!
Colorado Handmade Watercolor Testing Station
July 27, Sat, 11:00-2:00pm
Hosted by Amanda Fan of Boulder Colors
Discover the wonders of watercolors with environmentally-friendly pigments created from organic dyes derived from locally-grown Colorado flowers and produce. These pigments were first created by Amanda and Peng Fan as a homeschool project for their kids. Boulder Colors has now blossomed into a flourishing creative enterprise. Bring the whole family for this FREE event and a chance to learn about the process and get your creative juices flowing, with Amanda as your guide. You'll have the opportunity to capture a stunning landscape (or anything else that sparks your imagination) in your own painting. Join us for a fabulous day of creativity, community, and connection.
