In this class, I'm going to show you how to embrace those watercolour imperfections, focused on the love of all bodies, regardless of size, shape and skin tone. 
Off course, I'm also sharing watercolour techniques that will definitely bring your paintings to the next level.
 We're also going to talk about how to choose your colours before start your painting, how to add some unique effects and final details to actually create amazing and compelling watercolour illustrations that actually tell a story or send a body positive message to your audience.
Who is this class for? It could be a complete beginner (you don't need much experience for this class) or maybe you have some experience with watercolour but you want to try out a body positive painting for the first time. Wherever you are in your art journey, I guarantee you that after this class you're going to be more confident with watercolours than when you started.
