Gary’s Flower workshop will be on painting an Iris flower.  Gary will send each person signing up for his workshop a drawing for your to transfer to watercolor paper so you can get started painting without having to draw the flowers first.  He will use a 1/4 sheet of watercolor paper for his demo.  He will also pass out a greeting card with a preprinted scene on it that you can paint and then send to someone of your choosing.  If you have time, paint it during the workshop hours or take it home to paint at your leisure.

There may be a few hidden surprises during the course of the day as well, so plan to come and have some fun.

This will be a one day class on Saturday, January 10, 2026. Gary will hold this class at the new ANA Studio located at 300 N 2nd St, Rogers AR from 9:30 to 3:30. If you have trouble signing up, contact Gary at 479-249-5405
