Watercolor Studio Setup: Painting Basics Class Series

Proyecto de clase práctica

CLASS PROJECT - Review the below steps to complete your project! 

Project Steps: 1. Survey Your Current Space

• Take a look around your current painting area.

• Ask yourself:
  - Does this space inspire me to paint?

• Take a "before" photo of your space as it is now.

2. Reflect and Plan

• If your space doesn’t feel inspiring yet, decide what adjustments you want to make.

• Think about small changes that could help — like clearing clutter, improving lighting, or adding a cozy touch.

3. Set the Mood

• Bring a welcoming feeling into your space:
  - Light a candle, turn on calming music, or open a window for fresh air — whatever makes the space feel more inviting to you.

4. Optimize Your Space

• Create zones if needed:
  - A zone for painting
  - A zone for administration (like planning or sketching ideas)
  - A cozy zone for sipping coffee or taking creative breaks

5. Optimize Your Painting Time

• Identify the best times of day or week for you to paint.

• Set up your studio so it’s ready for you to dive in when inspiration strikes.

6. Capture Your Transformation

• Once you’ve made your changes, take an "after" photo of your refreshed studio space.

• Show how even small adjustments can create a big shift in inspiration!

7. Share Your Project

• Upload your before-and-after photos to the Project Gallery.

• (Optional) Add a few sentences about what you changed and how the new setup feels to you!

Reminder: This project isn’t about having a “perfect” space — it’s about creating a place that feels welcoming, personal, and supportive of your watercolor journey. Small changes can make a big difference!
