Blue Hour Watercolor Workshops Hi, I’m Kiely—the artist and instructor behind Blue Hour Art.

Inspired by the quiet moments between day and night, Blue Hour Watercolor Workshops offers calm evening classes that invite reflection, exploration, and creative pause. I’m a wife, mother, and lifelong art lover with an Associate’s in the Arts, a Bachelor’s in Graphic Design & Media Arts, and I’m currently completing my Master’s in Art History and Visual Culture. I’m passionate about creating calm, approachable art experiences that invite people to slow down, explore process, and reconnect with creativity.

🎨 Looking for a team activity that’s actually relaxing? 🌙

Bring a little creativity to your next employee appreciation event, team-building day, staff retreat, conference, or workplace celebration with a Blue Hour Corporate Mini-Workshop!

Designed for groups of up to 24 participants, this beginner-friendly watercolor experience is short, approachable, and completely customizable—no artistic experience required.

During your mini-workshop, your team will:

💧 Learn Blue Hour’s 4 Core Principles of Watercolor
🖌️ Practice beginner-friendly watercolor techniques
🎨 Create 48 watercolor bookmarks—two for each participant in a full group
✨ Paint a subject or theme chosen by your organization
🌙 Enjoy creative time together without the pressure of having to “be artistic”

Choose something seasonal, incorporate a theme meaningful to your organization, or simply pick something your team will have fun painting. Blue Hour provides the instruction and watercolor supplies—you provide the people!

Whether you’re planning something for 6 coworkers or a full group of 24, it’s an easy way to slow down, connect, learn something new, and send everyone home with something they made themselves. 💙

🍂🎨 BLUE HOUR FALL & WINTER CLASS SERIES IS HERE! ❄️🌙
Cozy drinks, fall colors, furry friends, pie, Christmas cookies…and plenty of watercolor. 💙
Blue Hour is heading into my favorite time of year with a whole lineup of beginner-friendly watercolor nights designed to give you an excuse to get out, try something creative, and enjoy a little time for yourself.
☕ Pumpkin Spice & Paint Nights
Sip something cozy while we explore warm fall colors and paint whimsical pumpkins.
👻 Spooky Sips & Paint Nights
A little spooky, a lot cozy! Think playful Halloween watercolor, seasonal sips, and plenty of creative freedom.
🐾 Paint Your Pet
Bring your favorite furry (or feathered!) friend to life in watercolor! After such a wonderful first Paint Your Pet night, we're bringing it back!
🥧 Pie & Paint Nights
Watercolor + pie. Do I really need to say more? 😂 We'll celebrate November with warm fall colors, seasonal painting, and a slice of something delicious.
🍪 Christmas Cards & Cookies
We'll wrap up the year with watercolor Christmas cards, holiday cookies, and all the cozy Christmas vibes. 🎄
✨ No watercolor experience is necessary. These classes are made for beginners! I'll teach you the basics, provide the supplies, and help you along the way while still giving you room to make your painting completely your own.
Come by yourself, bring your best friend, make it a date night, or grab someone who keeps saying, "I'm not artistic!" 😉
🌙 Pick one night or paint your way through the whole season with Blue Hour.
Fall and winter dates are filling the calendar now—which one are you most excited for?! 🍂🎨 https://bluehourwatercolorworkshops.my.canva.site/blue-hour-watercolor-workshops-website/calendar
