Have you always wanted to create beautiful, loose, quick-flowing art in watercolour with the simplest of touches, then let me show you how!

In this class, I will show you how to create this beautiful long eye-lashed giraffe without any brushstrokes, but merely placing paint onto wet paper, along with some fabulous watercolour techniques that will add interest and texture. You will be amazed at how she comes together!

As with all my other classes we paint wet on wet, it’s such a liberating technique, and will certainly put a big smile on your face.

If you’re just starting your watercolour journey and aren’t familiar with my style it might be worth looking at one of my three beginner classes before taking the plunge with this class :)

I’ll be showing you:

How to create this beautiful loose giraffe by simply gauging the paper as it dries
How to achieve those beautiful, liquid brown eyes
How to apply two layers in one area to create a little more depth and interest
How to section certain parts of that help us control where that paint flows to
How those small finishing details pull her all together

You will be creating this elegant giraffe and be amazed and inspired to add these simple techniques into your future artwork with confidence

Past reviews

"There is only one word to describe Jane Davies' classes - MAGICAL!”

“Another Fantastic class from Jane. Janes's gentle & patient approach provides students with lessons that feel like you are sat opposite her with a cuppa. She provides wonderful feedback and encouragement. Without question, she is my favourite teacher on Skillshare.”

"Highly recommend this class. Jane has a different way of painting in watercolour, straight from the tube. For me, this resulted in the best watercolour painting I have ever done. She gives clear instructions, step by step, and works at a pace that is not overwhelming. I cannot wait to try another one of her classes"

“Jane is an excellent teacher, and her clear instructions mean anyone, even complete beginners, can have a go and produce a piece of work that they will be very pleased with. Highly recommended.”

“This is a great video class by the very generous teacher Jane Davies. I really enjoyed attempting this with Jane's unusual but effective technique. Thank you Jane”

"Wonderful class. Jane is an excellent teacher, guiding you through each stage with clear instructions and demonstrations. I love her friendly, informal style”
