This class will teach you how to paint six realistic-style pumpkins and gourds using beginner and intermediate watercolor techniques.

In this class, you will learn how to sketch 3D pumpkins and gourds (optional), work through a variety of practice exercises to hone your intermediate watercolor skills, and complete six individual paintings. Your class project will be the culmination of each of the watercolor paintings we work on throughout the class.

By the end of this class, you’ll not only have the skills and techniques to paint festive watercolor pumpkins and gourds in the realistic style, you will also have a beautiful piece of artwork to frame and display as part of your fall decor.

This class is suitable for watercolor artists of all levels. We will be using a variety of beginner and intermediate techniques throughout the class. I’ve broken up the final project into bite-sized lessons with step-by-step instructions, and I’ll be painting most sections in real-time so you can follow along easily. Feel free to also pause, rewind, or slow the class down to a pace that works best for you.
