Watercolor Practice: Color & Value – Inspired by Alma Thomas
October 5, 2026
3 to 5:30 pm
Join us for our Inspired to Paint: Watercolor Practice I – Build Your Foundation series. Each week we’ll study and copy renowned artists to build your watercolor skills in color, technique and composition.
This week our featured artist is: Alma W. Thomas. We will be talking about color, value, types of brushes and water control.
Alma Thomas (1891–1978) was an American artist and educator, best known for her vibrant, abstract paintings filled with rhythmic patterns and bold color. After a long career teaching art in Washington, D.C. public schools, she fully embraced painting in her 70s, developing a signature style inspired by nature.
