Welcome to my online Watercolour for beginners video course.

 

As a professional artist and tutor I know how important key art skills are. This course is designed to take you from the basics and on through the key skills needed to begin painting in watercolours.

As a tutor with 20 years’ experience I love introducing students to a new medium. But I also know the benefits of a refresher course for experienced watercolourists.

It’s always useful to go back to the beginning to understand why and how techniques work.

The course is divided into 5 lessons and designed for the complete beginner to those with more experience who want a refresher in the core skills of watercolour painting.

What is Watercolour for beginners about?

Is this course for me?

Do you want to work step by step from the beginning? Understanding the equipment needed for watercolour painting, work through core skills like; paint consistency, wet on wet washes and glazing? Do you want to work on a series of simple paintings that build on these core skills?  Then yes this is for you.

The course assumes you have no prior knowledge and presents each piece of information or skill in manageable lessons. Allowing you to work through at your own pace, completing each lesson and building on the previous lessons skills.

 

What does the course cover?

Lesson 1 – Getting started. This covers all the equipment you need, basic mark making and paint consistency.

Lesson 2 – Key skills. This shows you how to lay down different washes and encourages you to use primary colours in mixes to create a colour wheel.

Lesson 3 – Primary colour mixes. This lesson works through the previous skills learnt to show you how to paint a still life of fruit.

Lesson 4 – Landscape painting. Here you will use glazing to paint a lovely country scene.

Lesson 5 – For fun! This is all about having fun and focusing on effects. There’s also a creative painting of sea and moon using different effects.

Everything you need to set you on the road to creating your own wonderful watercolours!

What will I need to start the course?

Well to start the course you only need a means of watching each of the video lessons online. You will also need to register with my website, where you will be given access to the course.

In lesson 1 I talk you thorough all the equipment you will need to get started with watercolours. As a basic guide all you really need is a watercolour paper pad, 2 brushes and 3 tubes of watercolour paint. If you are completely new to watercolour painting then I suggest you watch the first video in lesson 1 before buying your equipment.

 

Can I get more support?

Yes. Once enrolled on the course you will also have access to my Student Chatroom, with a dedicated area for you to post images of your work, interact with other members and I’ll be around to give feedback and comments.

How long does the course take to complete?

There are over 3 hours of video, which can be watched and worked through in one day if you are in a rush. But I suggest you take one lesson at a time, gaining the skills and techniques in each lesson before moving on. The course is designed around my popular 5 week watercolour for beginner’s studio course so is broken down into 5 lessons for you to work through.

No, your Log In details for online learning and digital content are for your personal use only and should not be shared. If you would like to buy the course for a group, then do contact me and I can quote you for group access.

 

Can I cancel and receive a refund?

Unfortunately once access to the course has been given I am unable to give a refund. If you have any problems then please do contact me (artwithtricia@gmail.com) and I will do my best to iron out any problems.
