A Splash of Color for Girl Up

On Monday, February 6th and 13th, Hannah Ineson shared her talent and passion for watercolors with the Girl Up club. Ms. Ineson has over 40 years of art experience, especially in painting and pottery, and she teaches classes at the Marco Island Center for the Arts. The girls were surprised to find a packet of art supplies, donated by the Artists in Residence at St. Mark's church, to use during the class and to keep for future use. The girls experimented with creating color wheels by organizing the colors on their paper. Ms. Hannah taught the girls how to dilute the color with water and create different shades of the same color. Using shades and blends, the girls designed bookmarks and Valentine’s Day cards. The Marco Woman’s Club organized the painting classes, and members Jill Dizio, Joyce Frame, and Kristina Tane-Jones assisted the girls during the classes. It was a fantastic opportunity for the girls to dabble in a new creative outlet, and hopefully, some of the girls will continue to pursue the art of watercolor in their own time.
