Main Street Gallery hosts painting classes

LAKEPORT – Painting instructor Patricia Osborne will be returning to teach classes in August at the Lake County Arts Council's Main Street Gallery.


Osborne will offer a class on painting the ocean, waves, rocks and sea life in watercolor on Sunday, Aug. 10 and Monday, Aug. 11, from 9:30 a.m. to 4 p.m., with lunch at noon. Cost for the class is $165.


This is a great class for beginners and all levels to discover how to make watercolor paint itself. Osborne's method of working consists of two parts: a wild, spontaneous phase, in which you will learn to create texture that will give the illusion of water, waves, rocks, trees; and a realism phase, in which

you will learn to add detail so the viewer's eye will read the rest as reality.


Let go and watch how the paint and water mix on their own – and you will not get mud. Here's a chance to become the watercolor artist you have always wanted to be. All levels are welcome.
