I'm a professional watercolour artist from Australia. I have sold thousands of my paintings and prints all around the world. My days are now spent teaching others how to paint in this dynamic medium. When I paint I try to find a balance between rendering detail but allowing watercolour to look like watercolour. My favourite technique to use is wet on wet. When watercolour blends on the paper beautiful effects are created as the different pigments combine. In this class I will walk you step by step through my painting process. Whether you are a beginner or you are a more experienced painter this class will give you lots of techniques and tips that will help you expand your painting skills.
