Finding the Beauty in the Everyday Exhibit Opening

Finding the Beauty in the Everyday Exhibit Opening

This exhibition centers on the small, often overlooked moments that shape daily life — the chipped mug reached for each morning, sunlight spilling across the kitchen table, the comfort of familiar routines. The work celebrates the idea that art does not need to come from grand gestures or rare materials. Beauty exists in the ordinary: in memory, habit, quiet moments, and in simply paying attention.

Watercolor on Masa Paper: Batik-Inspired Textures with Cindy Sarkady

Discover the magic of painting with watercolor on Masa paper, a unique process that produces stunning, batik-like textures and captivating effects. In this class, you’ll learn how to crinkle, soak, and prepare Masa paper to enhance its natural fibers, allowing watercolor to settle into folds and creases in unpredictable and beautiful ways. The result is soft, diffused washes and dramatic shading that bring depth and movement to your artwork. Ideal for artists of all levels, this workshop encourages experimentation and expression through texture and color. Come ready to explore a technique that’s both meditative and visually compelling. Since Masa paper takes a while to dry, your encouraged to bring a towel and a hair dryer. You are welcome to bring your own reference, paints and brushes however; all supplies are included in the class fee of $35.
