Sierra did a wonderful job teaching. She is personable and seems comfortable with teaching. I've done watercolors for years but have been in a creative rut. This class taught me a major key to effectively using watercolors and I am so happy I decided to sign up.

I?m a creative person at heart ? I love to upcycle and repurpose things into art. I?m also a soprano, amateur artist both watercolor and acrylics, a Sac State grad and longtime Sacramento County resident. I took my first painting classes in 1994, the year we got married, and over the years have taken different types of classes both in person and online. This past July, I started taking in-person watercolor classes at a local studio. I love that each week I get to take home a finished piece and

I was taking a portrait drawing class back in 2019 with Frank Zamora at SCC. As somewhat of a perfectionist, I found myself struggling to let myself free in my work. I know what captivated me also captivated others...the lips, jaw lines, the nose, ears and the eyes can all look different and "change", based on angle and lighting.So this was the first time I decided to give up on proportions, let go, and just draw what I felt to me was weirdly beautiful. No one face is perfectly proportional,

As a girl I lived in a small community of nearly all Italian immigrants or first generation to USA. One lady stuck in my memory because she always wore a kerchief, as she picked fresh dandelion greens for her salad lunch. We kids were a "tribe"every morning running through the field next to her small home smashing the young greens. She would run out shaking her fist yelling "Youse Kids! Youse is CaCa! Youse kids is Shit!! Our mother put a stop to us running through the field. So I made this p

Title or Location: Baffins pond Portsmouth
This was one of my first attempts at water colours which I did back in July 2023. The location is Baffins pond, a beautiful spot in my local neighborhood where lots of people hang out to feed the birds and watch nature. There was a lot of things worth painting but as the painting progressed I kind of became more interested in the tree in the foreground with it's roots pushing up through the pavement.
