My Story = Your Story

Whether you are new to watercolor or have some experience, know that my journey has been just like yours. 

I took classes and workshops, watched videos, read books – anything that might help me improve and understand this tricky medium.  Unfortunately, the traditional way of teaching and learning watercolor only gets you so far.  

It’s hard to believe, but the most sophisticated watercolor painting is built three things :  A handful of basic watercolor painting techniques; a simple approach to composition; and practical, easy-to-understand color ideas.  Watercolor Methods lessons integrate all three into comprehensive but easy-to-follow lessons.

I love watercolor and love teaching watercolor. It has a reputation for being difficult. Its transparent, fluid nature is unlike any other medium. Learning its unique ways makes it so much easier. Our lessons emphasize techniques that work, along with considerations of composition and color. 

There is something for everyone – from beginners to advanced.

I hope to be a part of your watercolor journey!
