Description: Our Watercolor class is an old stand-by. It is not only one of our oldest classes, but is also one of the oldest art forms, going back to paleolithic times. Watercolor where the paints are made of pigments suspended in a water and put onto a liquid soaking paper, most notably, paper. Working with watercolors is difficult because with paint, it stays put. However, with watercolor, the paper and absorption changes the outline and appearance as it dries. Additionally, you have to be careful as colors can run into each other as they are absorbed, changing the shape and color of objects. Then, if you mess up with paint, you can paint over or scrape off the paint, but in watercolor, you might be able to partially correct a mistake by re-wetting and blotting, making errors costly. To help you with this is Ernesto Almada, our Watercolor instructor. Ernesto has lots of experience as an art teacher and brings that experience to our Sketching class.

Golf Tournament just around the corner
By: Mike Sylva

As the east coast grapples with several feet of snow, here on the west coast, and in particular, the Highland Senior Center, we prepare to golf. Our 25th Annual Golf Tournament will be held next month, on Thursday, April 16th. East Coast - Shoveling snow. West Coat - tapping in a birdie.

Applications are already and player divisions are filling up fast, but there are still some slots available—so sign up soon. There is the Regular Division, the Senior Division, and the Law Enforcement Division. The tournament will again be held at the San Bernardino Public Golf Course and promises to be filled with blue skies and lots of prizes, so mark your calendar.
