Explore the magic of watercolor on Masa paper, a unique process that creates soft, batik-like textures and expressive effects. In this class, you’ll learn how to crinkle, soak, and prepare Masa paper so watercolor settles into its natural folds, producing rich washes and beautiful depth.
Open to all skill levels, this workshop encourages experimentation and creative expression through texture and color. Masa paper takes time to dry, so please bring a towel and hair dryer. You may also bring your own reference images, paints, and brushes, though all supplies are included with the class fee.
