Let me show you how to paint this balloon dog in a loose, flowing wet on wet technique using just one colour

Balloon Dog is going to be a really fun, simple class. It will allow me to show you how to build up multiple, wet on wet layers, quickly and confidently. Balloon Dog has nice round shapes, that aren’t intimidating. The finished painting will have you smiling and wanting to paint balloon dogs everywhere!

If you’re just starting your watercolour journey and haven’t done my two earlier beginner classes, Simple Trees and Simple Butterflies, I’d suggest taking a look at those first

How to take colour out
How to just have fun with the wet on wet technique!

You will be painting the humorous balloon dog and be amazed and inspired to add these easy techniques into your future artwork with confidence

Past reviews

"That’s the shortest and best class on Skillshare"

“Jane has immediately become my favourite SkillShare teacher! Her unique style and explanations of how and why are fantastic! Thank you, Jane!”

"A very enjoyable way to begin to learn the fun and skill of watercolour"

“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.”

“Really find this new way to paint watercolors challenging and exciting to explore. The class is great for building or adding to techniques”

"I was so excited to find out Jane had started watercolour classes on Skillshare! I had the privilege to have a one to one session a while ago and was wanting to arrange another one but the pandemic, of course, meant it was not possible. As an amateur beginner, I only had exposure to YouTube videos and some online classes but the wet in wet techniques always remained a mystery to me. I didn’t appreciate how liberating and magical letting the watercolours run free on the paper would be! Thank you for this brilliant class Jane, really looking forward to the next one”

"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."
