Come enjoy summer morning painting in Seward Park, located directly across the street from the Manny Cantor Center. Follow the path of the outdoor Impressionists as they painted with light or filtered light outdoors. Watercolor is the perfect medium to capture the time, light, and air of the moment. Paint wet, wet on wet, wet on dry, dry, dry on dry or any combination to achieve the light and immediacy of painting directly from life and the environment.
