In this class you will discover easy methods for painting faces and figures with arguably the most challenging medium on the planet, watercolors. And you probably already know this too, but faces and bodies can be intimidating as well. So, I’ve put together some easy to follow lessons that will help you get past the fear and paint amazing artwork in just a few hours.
Beginner friendly – if you are brand new to watercolors, or perhaps you’ve been around for a while but want to dive in to figures, this course is the perfect ice-breaker.
Not intimidating – if you can draw an egg, or rectangle, you can follow along with the lessons. No drawing experience needed, just a positive attitude and a few hours of practice.
Easy to follow – Each lesson is narrated and filmed with multiple cameras so you feel like you’re in the studio with me, just like an in-person workshop.
