Enjoy an art play day and learn a new technique.
We’ll be making small colorful abstract landscapes that celebrate your spirit.
One of the fun pieces of this experience is using bits and pieces of old paintings to help create new paintings.
Although watercolor will be our primary painting medium, we’ll be using some less traditional papers along with straight watercolor paper.

About The Workshop Instructor: Ethel Hills
Ethel Hills grew up amidst the orchards, fields and hills of Hollis, New Hampshire. While completing her B.A. at the University of New Hampshire, she fell in love with the marshes and beaches of the seacoast region and eventually settled in Hampton.
While working traditional clerical jobs, she explored her creativity through needlework, photography and rug hooking. Interest in developing her own rug designs brought her to a drawing class and the beginning of a love of drawing and painting. To improve her skills, she actively pursued her study of art, including traditional art courses at the University of New Hampshire and the New Hampshire Institute of Art.
Hills has been painting seriously for more than thirty years and is currently pursuing her art career from her studio at Lane House Arts Center in downtown Hampton.
