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

In this class I will show you how create this brown bear using an interesting technique, that will help keep your work fresh and stop you over fiddling, and it's a bit of a mind bender! As with 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 out on your watercolour journey this is still a lovely class and a great introduction into wet and wet and my style of painting. Though if you'd like something a little easier I'd suggest taking a look at my beginner classes, these will break you in gently to my style :)

If you’re feeling confident and are already familiar with some of my techniques then this will be a great class for you!

I will show you:

How to create the bear with a really interesting first layer that will keep your work flowing and fresh
How to achieve that lovely sense of light while painting wet into wet
How to work quickly and confidently, by getting the timings just right
How to paint a simple eye with very little fuss
How to pull the painting together with the smallest of tweaks at the end

You will be painting this brown bear 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!”

“My favourite tutorial to date on Skillshare. Jane Davies is amazing--thank you for for teaching me how to create something I love”

"Highly recommend this class. Jane has a different way of painting in watercolor, straight from the tube. For me, this resulted in the best watercolor 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"

“Thank you sooooo much! I've been waiting for your class to start. I'm thrilled. Love you’re easy to follow style. As a beginner, it means a lot to me to be able to follow the lesson well. Looking forward to the next one”

“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”

"I already adore Jane's work and this class couldn't be different. She has magical hands to bring beautiful images to life in watercolour, and this beginner's exercise is a great way to get rid of our fear to work with this medium. I had so much joy, it was relaxing and I got confident of using paint on wet without that feeling that "I'm gonna ruin everything”
