Brush Strokes - Build your Watercolour Skills. About the Series “Building your Watercolour Skills, we are taking a closer look at areas of creativity where you may need more specific guidelines to accomplish a task. The classes will follow shorter lessons with emphasis on the processes & techniques to help you through all the learning curves that have worked for me.

It couldn’t be easier to tackle the projects & see them through to the end with a final tangible piece of Art or newly acquired Brush Stroke Library to save in a file. These will come in handy when you need a boost of creativity or a reminder of what your brushes can do.
The Brush Strokes Class is a systematic approach to bringing your Brush Strokes to life & build on your techniques.
We are using a limited palette again & narrowing down our attention to focus on Brush Strokes. We will start our lessons out with self-discovery of each of the brushes you have with fun & playful Brush marks.
From there we are taking a look at deeper experimentation as I demonstrate some of my favourite methods to draw with a few brushes.
The Exercises will be for your benefit, but completely optional, although it would be nice to build your Brush Stroke Library early on.
In the Brush Cleaning lesson, you’ll learn more tricks & discover how to deep clean even old brushes. If you have Water brushes, this class will benefit you tremendously as I disassemble a water brush, clean it thoroughly & put it back together perfectly.
The most satisfying lesson is the Bonus Video where you can follow along as we do a whole variety of Brush Stroke techniques to create a piece of Art ready to hang. Once you’ve created one piece, you’ll want to create more & more. With the Brush Stroke Class there is an abundance of actionable ideas & techniques you can copy into your existing knowledge.
It is my wish for you to enjoy the Experiments, Exercises & practice phase of your Watercolour Journey & grow as an Artist or creative being. By Building your Watercolour Skills through the Brush Strokes Class, your abilities & creativity will grow to the next level with ease.
