Ready to paint the personality of an animal?


🎨Watercolour is the perfect medium for that.💦


Learn to use the ideal watercolour technique to express the very thing that makes you want to paint an animal. 

Whether it is the playful personality of a piglet or the serene majesty of a lion, watercolour offers an easy way to achieve the desired effect.  

We'll also use a marvellously forgiving loose approach to our watercolour painting which makes watercolour painting a lot of fun. 

🎨Walk away with multiple techniques you can apply to your future paintings.🎨 

Let's start with a playful piglet

Don't worry - I'll even do the drawing for you if you like! Then we'll use a loose approach to splash in juicy colours to bring this little fellow to life.

Next we'll paint a regal lion

We'll use just the right watercolour approach to make soft fur easy breezy, and make this chap the star of the show.

FAQ

  • What is included in this painting project?

    Two quick easy projects for beginners. Follow along with me, step by step in real time, from blank page to expressive animal. We will use just the right watercolour techniques to convey the spirit of the animal

  • Is it suitable for beginners?

    Absolutely! All of the videos are fully narrated. I talk a lot (or so I'm told) which means there are lots of tips and guidance at every stage. You can follow me along every step of the way.

  • What if I can't draw?

    No problem. This project includes the (reusable) line drawing and step by step instructions to transfer that drawing onto your watercolour paper. Then it's just like paint by numbers! (Actually - it's even easier than that, I think)

  • When do I get access to the class material and for how long?

    The class is self paced. You get immediate (and forever) access to the whole class so you can binge/pace yourself and of course, rewatch at your convenience. You can also speed up or slow down the videos to your liking.
