Discover the joy and fulfillment of a daily watercolor habit! In this class, you will paint thirty watercolor paintings as you explore the unique properties of the medium!
We will paint a variety of subjects while we build our skills such as color mixing, accurate sketching, and developing useful watercolor techniques!
The lessons vary in length and complexity so no matter what you have going on in your life you can find a project that will fit in your day. The longer lessons are broken down into smaller chunks so you can divide it up if you need to!
You don't need a lot of supplies for this class and if you have painted before you probably have everything you need. I provide a full supply list including recommendations for affordable paints, brushes, and watercolor greeting cards as well as many items you can find around your house.
As with my previous class 30 Days to Better Painting, I have chosen to use reference images from The Color Cube but you do not need to own this product to take the class.
This class is open to watercolor artists of all levels, beginners can learn color mixing and foundational techniques while more advanced painters can brush up on their skills and use these daily paintings as a warm-up drill and a great way to build the habit of daily painting. And you will have a huge stack of paintings when you are done that you can keep or give to family and friends! If this sounds good to you click the enroll button and I will see you in class!
