Courses

Are you interested in learning a new skill?

I have two comprehensive art courses available for beginners:

​

Ocean Spirit - Introduction to watercolor and dotwork

Blended - A beginner's guide to water-mixable oils

​​​

No prior skills are necessary for the courses! With my guidance you will learn all the fundamentals about the two different mediums and create your own beautiful artwork.

​

If registrations are not currently open, but you can't wait to join the course, just send me a message to inquire about available spots!

In Ocean Spirit I will teach you how to create beautiful and detailed ocean illustrations by combining watercolor and dotwork (=stippling). We will go through both mediums separately first, covering all the materials, tools, and basic techniques, and then we will combine the two.

 

I will share all the tips and tricks that I've learned along the way, and we will go through the whole process of choosing your reference photos to creating a finished illustration, while also covering subjects such as backgrounds, gilding, scanning, and making your art seen.

Blended is all about painting with water-mixable oils - the wonderful alternative to traditional oils. In the course we will go through all the materials and basic techniques, and then paint several pieces, including an avocado, misty mountains, a fluffy bird, and a panda. There's also a bonus module included where we will paint a serene coralscape.

 

Once you've completed the course you'll have the confidence and skills to embark on your own oil painting journey.
