Nature & Art
Workshop with Jenny Keyser
Fridays: March 14 & 28 | 1:00 PM – 3:00 PM
at the St. Augustine Art Association
From fresh blooms to fresh ideas — let the season of spring inspire you!
Explore the intersection of art and nature with the guidance of award-winning artist, Jenny Keyser. Discover how to capture the vibrant colors, rich textures and ever-evolving beauty of the natural world around us.
With the instructor’s expertise in mixed media, you’ll have the opportunity to experiment with different techniques and materials — such as mono-printing and incorporating natural elements directly into your works of art. Together, you’ll endeavor to slow down, connect with the environment, and use nature’s lively palette to refine your personal style.
