Join us in painting these beautiful dwarf irises. On Tuesday, June 18th and Thursday, June 29th, Ceilon Aspensen will be teaching a watercolor class in which we will paint these beautiful dwarf irises on the forest floor. The cost is $67.00. Invite a friend and make a memory.😊

Click here to sign up for the class.

In this fun, low-pressure, class you will learn how to create depth and shadows in your watercolor paintings while also learning how to paint these beautiful dwarf irises. You will learn the basic skills of watercolor painting and the principles of color theory, and apply them in order to create a variety of effects rendered in watercolor painting. No prior watercolor painting experience is necessary! Beginners are welcome!

I provide all the supplies, so all you have to do is sign up for the class and join us on Tuesday, June 18th and Tuesday, June 20th. It will take two two-hour sessions to complete this painting. You don’t need to bring anything. All supplies will be provided. 

The class will be held at Rock31 in the Builder Room. It is located at the corner of 2nd and Broadway right under the SkyPoint in downtown Billings. The address is 201 N. Broadway (click here for directions). They have great security and the doors are locked on the weekend, so I will be meeting people at the door and letting them in until 1:00pm. Then I’ll shut the door and we’ll get started painting! Because of this, you MUST sign up for the class ahead of time! Street parking is free on the weekends, and there is also a parking garage directly behind the Rock31 building on 2nd Avenue (not free, but affordable).

If you have questions about the class you can email Ceilon at artmaker@ceilon.com, or call her at 406-578-8822.

I hope to see you in the class June 18th and 20th. It will be fun! 😍

Wednesday Open Studio nights are zero-pressure informal evenings where adults who need creative time can use some of my most basic supplies (paper, watercolor paint, pencils, glue, etc.), and make things. There is no direct instruction during this time–just people hanging out with each other and the art supplies, being social, and making stuff.

Attendees are welcome to bring some of their own favorite supplies to work with. You are also welcome to bring you own snacks and beverages.

I will have a weekly art prompt for those who need to prime the pump to get their creative juices flowing. However, no one is limited to working from that prompt. Everyone is free to do their own thing on Open Studio nights.

These are very informal evenings of art-making for people who need other people to hang out with. We create together and see where the muse takes us. This is play time! No talent or skill required. Just bring your good attitude and a spirit of generosity, curiosity, and follow your ideas wherever they take you.

When: Wednesday nights from 6:00-8:00pm (drop in and leave on your schedule)
