Watercolor Wonderland

Experience the JOY of Watercolor!

What You Will Learn in this Class

The number one question I am asked regularly is “How do I get started using watercolor?”

Watercolor and being in the flow of painting with it grounds me, centers me, and brings me SO MUCH JOY! And I want you to experience it too! 

In this course, I'm covering it all! 

All things watercolor with a twist. 

ALL THINGS WATERCOLOR! 

From paint (insight into all kinds of watercolors and brands) to paper, brushes, techniques (so many techniques), color mixing, surfaces and grounds, sketchbooks, paintings, papercrafting, and cardmaking, I’m covering it all. Did I mention TECHNIQUES? 😉

I’ve spent years enJOYing this medium and I’m looking forward to sharing everything I know in this big honkin’ course.  

Why? Because you asked! 

And I would LOVE for you to experience the same kind of JOY I do when I'm creating with watercolor. To me, it's a magical medium to work with. 

All your questions AND MORE will be answered in this course. And you'll paint along with me. 

This isn't a crash course. It's a deep, wonderful dive. There is OVER 4+ hours of instruction b

All video content is delivered in technique-based lessons complete with full-color handouts and instructions for you to paint and follow along. The lessons are NOT sped up. This course takes a deep dive and has a lot of instruction built in. You can pause the video at any time to master the techniques.
