Watercolor painting might seem very difficult and many people miss out on the beautiful experience of painting with this wonderful medium because they are scared of trying.

In this class, designed for the absolute beginners, I will explain the very basics of watercolor techniques to give you a solid foundation to start building your watercolor practice.

I have another class on watercolor (Paint a Naturalistic Illustration in Watercolor and Your Favourite Color Palette) where I explain some of my techniques, but I felt I needed to provide you with a more in-depth class just for the basics to demystify watercolor painting.

In this class you will find 9 exercises:

Exercise 1 – Color Saturation
Exercise 2 – Flat Wash
Exercise 3 – Color Blending
Exercise 4 – Optical Mixing
Exercise 5 – Gradient Wash
Exercise 6 – Masking Fluid
Exercise 7 – Color Drop
Exercise 8 – Stippling
Exercise 9 – Lifting Color

By the end of this class you will have acquired a solid foundation on the basic watercolor techniques which you can use for any painting you want, from still life to botanical.
