SUMMARY 

This 90-minute program celebrates the art of the doodle! As a calligrapher, I use doodles all the time in my work, so when I introduce this program, I talk with the participants about patterns and how calligraphers use them. Inspired by the work of marine biologist Sylvia Earl, Calligrapher Debby Reelitz will guide us through exploring the ocean and creating coral reefs with doodles. This is a relaxing, low stress art program where everyone walks away with a unique project. Works well for  all ages.

DETAILS

Participants start by creating a black and white doodle like above, then using watercolors to add color to their project.
