Watercolor Painting with Ronna: The Belted Kingfisher

*This is a live, online art class.

Join this live, online class to paint the Belted Kingfisher alongside Ronna Fujisawa, an experienced watercolor painter, art educator, and bird enthusiast. This class is appropriate for intermediate and ambitious beginners.

As the Belted Kingfisher flies across lakes and rivers, they can be noticed by their wild rattling call. Perched on a high branch or plunging to catch a fish, the distinct marking of this bird can be well seen. By painting birds, we can be more familiar with the color, shape and patterns of specific birds. Come join this online watercolor painting class to learn in depth the visual characteristics of the Belted Kingfisher.

Students can paint along with Ronna during this live class or work at their own pace with access to the recording of the class after the session.

$20 – $30
