What is stopping you from starting to paint with watercolor?
Often we get stuck in our thoughts...
That sense of mental "stuckness" keeps us from stepping through to that decision, action, next step that will get us to our desired goal.
Are any of these thoughts familiar to you?
- I don't know where to start.
- It feels intimidating. The subject matter looks to hard to paint.
- I don't know what to paint.
- I'm afraid it will be awful!
- I don't want to do it by myself.
- It's going to take too long. I don't have enough time.
There IS
another
way.
Several years ago, I took out a book to learn to draw.
It was thick and big and written by an incredible smart artist. She was an academic in many ways, accomplished and very knowledgeable with research and years of teaching behind her.
I went through the book.
It was long. There was hours of reading.
Then hours of exercises.
Going through that book was more intense than some of the science and algebra courses I took preparing for nursing school!
It felt like an intense college level course without the help of the teacher or the encouragement of the students.
You can learn from an academic approach to drawing and painting – and that has its place.
Is that how you feel about taking on the hobby of painting?
It's something you want to do, but the process of starting feels intimating.
Secretly, you think it's going to take a lot of painful practice to get to the point of enjoyment.
Not only will it be a struggle, but the learning might also even be...boring?
I've got good news.
There is another way.
The "other" way is available.
One that is fun, drenched with color and flowers with laughter and learning added in.
You can take an academic approach to learning to paint with watercolor and you will learn so much. BUT, you can learn faster with a more relaxed approach.
It is a path that is fun and, while still requiring practice and even a bit of patience, you'll see the results of your effort almost immediately.
Are any of the following reasons you haven't started your watercolor hobby yet?
It seems:
• Complicated
• Requires too much time to master the basics
• Fear of frustration and disappointment
• Fear of wasting time or money (or other resources) investing into something that wont' work out.
In this two part online workshop, you'll discover watercolor to be fun and simple to learn.

Frequently Asked Question:
"I feel intimidated by the process! All the videos I watch seem to be for those further along."
Part of the "breakthrough" is to step into painting and just hit "go."
That being said, I start with simple, but surprisingly lovely, watercolor themes: a flower and a landscape.
Using foundational techniques and a few colors, I think you'll be surprised at what you create.
PLUS, I teach how to "clean up" mistakes. There are very few things that we can't work through to fix and adjust!

I have no idea what to buy.
