Make Your Own Watercolors: A Hands-On Creative Workshop with watercolorist Cristina Mazzoni (who is visiting us from Vermont to teach this workshop!)
Discover the art and magic of making your own watercolor paints from scratch. In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn how powder pigments are transformed into rich, luminous paints using traditional techniques. Each participant will leave with a set of handcrafted watercolor paints, practical knowledge of the process, and the confidence to continue experimenting at home.
No prior experience is necessary—just curiosity and a love of color. All materials included.
… speaking of curiosity: visit Cristina’s Esty shop for inspiration!
Workshop taught in English (all teachers are bilingual). All sales are final: no refunds or change of dates.
This workshop can be taken as a stand alone, but it can also be paired with a morning session of ceramic hand-building with artist Keven Lee to create your own porcelain watercolor set. A perfect full-day creative experience at Atelier Retailles!

During this special workshop, created as part of our collaboration around watercolor, hand build your own glazed porcelain set for watercolor: a carved palette, a pinched water cup, and an organic brush rest inspired by the sensual forms of Keven Lee’s practice.
A morning workshop that fits beautifully into a full creative day: pair it with the watercolor paint-making workshop in the afternoon with artist Cristina Mazzoni (1:00–5:00 PM) and leave with everything you need to create!
All materials are provided. No experience required, open to all.
*Note: hand-building is only the first step! You’ll be able to pick up your glazed and fired pieces in the weeks following the workshop. The same goes for the watercolor paints: you may leave them on site to dry completely and pick them up later, ready to use!
