About this class

Experience watercolor painting through a direct and expressive approach. Guided by the motto “Breathe and Flow,” you will learn how to work with the paper’s white space (“breathe”) and the generous use of water (“flow”) to create light, depth, and movement. Rather than fighting watercolor’s unpredictability, this course shows you how to use it to your advantage.

Through clear foundation exercises and guided demonstrations, you will learn how to build and layer washes, plan color combinations, and balance spontaneity with intention. We will work from simple reference motifs—such as still life, architecture, and landscapes—making the techniques approachable while opening up rich visual possibilities.

 

What you’ll do in the class

The course combines the immediacy of sketching with thoughtful color planning, giving you tools to work efficiently and with confidence. Whether you want to capture everyday moments, travel impressions, or develop ideas for your own projects, you will receive hands-on guidance and individual feedback in a small group setting.

Who is the class suitable for?

This workshop is suitable for beginners as well as those with some experience who want to deepen their understanding of watercolor’s unique, fluid nature—both its controlled and its beautifully untamed qualities. You are welcome to join just one class, to give watercolors a try, even for the first time.
