Discover the art of urban sketching in this immersive 6-week Saturday series led by teaching artist Ann Alexander at Vision Arts Gallery in Myrtle Beach.

This beginner-friendly yet skill-building class introduces students to expressive line work, basic perspective, and watercolor techniques while capturing everyday scenes. Students will progress from photo-based sketches to confident on-location drawing, developing a loose, personal sketching style that blends observation with creative expression.

Each week builds upon the last—starting with foundational line and shape, adding watercolor washes, and moving into speed sketching and real-world environments. Indoor studio sessions transition into outdoor and on-location sketching, helping students gain confidence, flexibility, and creative flow.

By the end of the course, students will have a collection of sketches, a deeper understanding of line-and-wash techniques, and the confidence to sketch anywhere—from cafés and city streets to travel adventures and daily life.

All experience levels are welcome. Come ready to explore, observe, and sketch with joy.

• Thursdays: 11am-2pm

• Dates: April 2-May 7, 2026

Creative Storytelling with Photos: Let’s Go See What We’ve Been Missing

An 8-Week In-Person Photography & Visual Storytelling Workshop
w/ Kathy Strauss, CCFC Creationeer

(week 8: 4/11/26)

Ever wish your photos looked more interesting, more artistic, or told a better story?

Creative Storytelling with Photos is a fun, hands-on workshop designed to help you see the world like an artist and photograph with intention. It’s not about fancy equipment or technical jargon—it’s about learning how to really see.

Using the 8 Principles of Design—contrast, unity, balance, proportion, harmony, rhythm, repetition, and emphasis—you’ll learn how to notice light, pattern, color, detail, and emotion, and turn everyday moments into images that feel alive and meaningful.

Not just look—really see.

• The shadows. The patterns. The tiny details.

• The unexpected beauty hiding in plain sight.

Each week builds skills and confidence through playful exploration, creative challenges, and guided learning. We’ll wander, notice, experiment, and laugh as you explore new ways of seeing and begin to develop your own visual style.

Whether you shoot with a smartphone or DSLR, you’ll leave with stronger composition skills—and a whole new way of seeing the world around you.

When: Saturdays: 2/21/26-4/11/26

Time: 10am-12:30pm

Fee: $360 for full 8-weeks.Register HERE

Perfect for: Teens & adults (recommended ages 10+), beginners through intermediate photographers, creatives, and anyone who wants to see more, notice more, and create more.

Bring your phone. Bring your camera. Bring your sense of wonder.
No experience needed—just curiosity and a sense of adventure.

✨ Learn to see like an artist (even if you don’t think you are one). ✨

Discover the art of urban sketching in this immersive 6-week Saturday series led by teaching artist Ann Alexander at Vision Arts Gallery in Myrtle Beach.

This beginner-friendly yet skill-building class introduces students to expressive line work, basic perspective, and watercolor techniques while capturing everyday scenes. Students will progress from photo-based sketches to confident on-location drawing, developing a loose, personal sketching style that blends observation with creative expression.

Each week builds upon the last—starting with foundational line and shape, adding watercolor washes, and moving into speed sketching and real-world environments. Indoor studio sessions transition into outdoor and on-location sketching, helping students gain confidence, flexibility, and creative flow.

By the end of the course, students will have a collection of sketches, a deeper understanding of line-and-wash techniques, and the confidence to sketch anywhere—from cafés and city streets to travel adventures and daily life.

All experience levels are welcome. Come ready to explore, observe, and sketch with joy.

What Are You Saying YES to This Year?

Join US for a Playful, Inspiring 2-Hour Painting Experience

Where Creativity Flows | Where Possibility Begins

Step into color, movement, and possibility in YES Extravaganza, a joyful 2-hour creative painting experience designed to help you say YES to what’s next.

This is not about painting perfectly.
This is about painting honestly.
This is about loosening up, letting go, and letting your creativity lead the way.

Through guided prompts, expressive mark-making, intuitive color play, and layered painting, you’ll explore the powerful question:

What are you saying YES to this year?

• More joy?

• More courage?

• More creativity?

• More peace?

• More YOU?

At Vision Arts Gallery, we believe creativity is a catalyst for healing, clarity, and becoming. In this uplifting experience, you’ll be invited to explore your inner world through color, shape, and design—without pressure, rules, or expectations.

No art experience is needed. Just bring your curiosity, your heart, and your willingness to play.

You’ll leave with:

• A vibrant, meaningful artwork

• A fresh sense of clarity and inspiration

• A deeper connection to your creative self

• And a bold, beautiful YES you can see and feel

This is art as permission.
This is creativity as energy.
This is your YES.

Limited seats available – advance registration required.
Reserve your spot now and step into your YES.

This special Creative Palette Paint Night at Swig & Swine features a winter favorite—“Starry Night Christmas Truck.”

Your canvas will come alive with swirling midnight skies of deep blues and greens inspired by Van Gogh’s Starry Night. Beneath the glowing stars, a bright red vintage truck carries home a snow-dusted Christmas tree, framed by luminous evergreens sparkling under the winter moon. It’s festive, nostalgic, and full of holiday cheer—a perfect piece to display or gift!

No experience needed—just bring your friends, enjoy your favorite beverage, and bring your appetite with Swig & Swine’s mouthwatering BBQ. We’ll provide everything else: paints, brushes, canvas, and step-by-step guidance to help you create your masterpiece.

Come for the art, stay for the laughter, and leave with memories (and a painting) that’ll warm your heart all season long!
