Discover the expressive beauty of abstract watercolor with Worcester artist and art educator Patti Kelly in a hands-on workshop that celebrates intuition, movement and the unexpected. Through playful techniques, layering and color exploration, participants of all skill levels will learn to let go of perfection and create vibrant, emotionally resonant paintings with confidence.
Patti Kelly is an accomplished Worcester-based watercolorist whose work has been exhibited throughout New England and recognized for its sophisticated use of color, abstraction and expressive technique. Drawing on decades of artistic practice, exhibition experience and her deep understanding of the medium of watercolor as both a traditional and contemporary, Patti brings a thoughtful, technically grounded approach to teaching, empowering students to expand their visual language while developing their process.

JR Workshops to Strengthen Artists Behind the Art—
Unlike traditional art instruction, these workshops focus on strengthening the artist behind the artwork. By combining the expertise of licensed art therapists with Juniper Rag's artist-centered philosophy, participants gain practical wellness tools, greater emotional awareness, stronger creative confidence, and a deeper appreciation for the remarkable ways artistic practice supports mental health, resilience, and personal growth.
These experiences are designed not only to help artists make better work—but to help them build healthier, more fulfilling creative lives.
Max attendance is set to 12 artists for an intimate and personal experience.
*This workshop is professional development. Remember to record it to your books and organize your investment for your taxes.
