FASMA | Take your watercolor to the next step

**TAKE YOUR WATERCOLORS TO THE NEXT LEVEL** 🎨💦

 
Meet Linda Whynman — a professional watercolor artist who lives right here in San Miguel de Allende. She paints from her home studio in El Obraje, and her work is shown at the Galería San Francisco at Fábrica La Aurora. In other words: she’s the real deal.

Every month, Linda opens her studio for 3 days from 9:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. But set aside this special date:

 

✨ Pinta San Miguel a Tu Manera – Special Session ✨

📍 When: August 15, 11:00–14:00

📍 Where: Instituto Allende

👩‍🎨👨‍🎨 Ages: 18+ with a little bit of watercolor experience

💰 Cost: Free

🎨 Capacity: 8 artists 👩‍🎨👨‍🎨

📌 Do you have your own materials? Bring them. If you don’t, no worries—we’ll take care of it here.

We’ll paint a custom View of San Miguel—no boring copies. Linda keeps the groups small—maximum 8 people—so if you mess up, you’ll get tips, and you’ll share all the cool tricks.

 

**What is it about?**

Watercolor is wild, unpredictable, and addictive. Linda guides you through the basics, the techniques, and those “how did that happen?” moments. You’ll leave with a painting you’ll actually want to hang.

 

**Why with Linda?**

She’s represented by the #1 gallery in San Miguel—Galería San Francisco. She knows watercolor inside and out, and makes the learning curve feel a lot less rough.

 

Are you ready to make magic with water?

Spots fly because small group = big learning.

Let’s get our hands dirty and create something incredible. 🌈🖌️

 

**Linda Whynman**

Linda Whynman is an artist whose work is shaped by a lifelong curiosity about place, atmosphere, and the calm emotional currents that connect people with the landscapes around them. Working primarily in watercolor, she’s drawn to the balance of spontaneity and control of the medium—her ability to capture both fleeting light and lasting memory. Her paintings often reflect a sensitivity to mood, movement, and the subtle beauty found in everyday scenes, whether in natural settings, travel experiences, or intimate moments of observation.

Whynman’s artistic journey has been enriched through trips and cultural exchanges, particularly between the United States and Mexico. She has exhibited her work in regional and community exhibitions, and she has the honor of presenting her painting as part of the Watercolor Society exhibition in Mexico City. Showing work in this vibrant cultural capital is especially meaningful, since Mexico’s rich artistic traditions, color, architecture, and sense of history continue to inspire her creative vision.

At the heart of Whynman’s practice is the desire to create paintings that invite pause and reflection. She hopes viewers find not only visual pleasure in her work, but also a sense of connection—maybe with a memory, a place they’ve known, or a feeling words can’t easily express. Her ongoing goal as an artist is to keep learning, experimenting, and deepening her relationship with watercolor while sharing beauty and authenticity through painting.

For Whynman, art is both discovery and conversation: a way of seeing the world more clearly, and offering that perspective to others with generosity and joy.
