About This Class
This past year we have all discovered different ways to stay indoors and somewhere we have lost the connection with nature. A year has passed, 4 seasons have passed. Nature changed its color palette and we could only watch it through our windows. As we are celebrating world watercolor month, I thought it’s a great idea to travel around the world to witness all the seasons with watercolors.
This class is designed in a daily challenge forma which will run for 30 days, every week we will be exploring a new season and we will do 7 beautiful watercolor paintings.
Watercolor is a beautiful medium which is known for its transparency and unpredictability. I have been using watercolor since my childhood and every-time I start a new painting, I feel as excited as I was when I started. This course is not just about creating 30 paintings but it is more about learning new techniques, its a power packed course where you will learn so many tips, tricks and techniques which is definitely going to be an asset for your future art practice.
If you like this class, please leave a review that will help this class reach more students.
I'm so excited to have you here. Thanks a lot for joining :)

Hands-on Class Project
This course is in a daily challenge format, so every day I will be uploading a project which you can do on the same day or you can do them as a whole at the end of every week. By the end of this course you will have 30 paintings.
You can choose to upload your paintings everyday or you can upload as a collection of paintings at the end of the challenge. I will be waiting to see your beautiful watercolor landscapes, So please upload your projects here in the project gallery so we all can have a look at each other's work. If you post your work on Instagram, do tag me @aurorabyz so that I can share your project in my stories!
