One of Barbara’s greatest joys as a professional watercolorist is to teach others, with workshops in New Jersey and New York. An upcoming workshop by Barbara is scheduled at the Gourgaud Gallery on Saturday March 15 from 12:30 to 4 PM. For further information about the workshop see the website www.cranburyartscouncil.org.
