Here's how:
Phase I
Learn How to Drawn
Taking the time to learn how to draw strengthens the right side of our brain and empowers us to create our own designs without having to rely on tracing.
After going through my foundational drawing course you'll be able to:
- Identify and use the Elements of Art
- Create 1, 2, and 3 Point Perspective Drawings
- Use Comparative Measuring
- Draw Portraits & the Human Figure
- Design a Great Composition
Learning these fundamentals will prepare you for drawing anything you want no matter how complicated, and will give you the foundation needed for painting realistically with watercolors!

Phase II
Learn How to Paint with Watercolors
Watercolors are NOT like other paint mediums.
They require a strategy prior to painting to properly build up those layers of translucent colors without turning them to mud.
You will learn my methods for creating and implementing a watercolor strategy in my foundational watercolor course, which will equip you with EVERYTHING you need to know to create your own vibrant, colorful paintings.
By the end of this course you'll be able to choose your materials with confidence, paint with 15 different watercolor techniques, and know how to plan, and execute your own painting from beginning to end.
- You also get to create 4 fun, and very different paintings to expand your skills and abilities.
