About This Class
In this class, I’ll be teaching how to paint a simple watercolor tree. I’ll cover some basics about the form and general shape of trees, as well as the wet in wet technique we’ll be using to mix color.
Students will be creating their own tree. While designed for beginners, anyone of any skill level can take this course.

Hey All! Name is Bryan (obviously). I've been making art for as long as I can remember, and while I have dabbled in everything from oils to ceramics, printmaking, digital design, and woodworking, I always find myself returning to watercolor and ink.
I'm here to share the knowledge I've gleaned over the past 10 or so years of painting in watercolor with you all and to learn from the awesome teaching community here on skillshare.
