painting :: watercolor class
A few weekends back my mother and grandmother (who is "Nana") came to visit the Mister and I. As I mentioned last week, I've been looking for a painting class and when I discovered that Beth Woessner was offering classes at a local art supply store/ studio I knew that I had found a good fit. ...
