Description
Welcome you to Adorable Watercolor Faces for Beginners!
If you’ve ever wanted to paint watercolor faces but felt too intimidated by mixing skin tones and shading, then this is the perfect class for you!
A couple of years ago, I felt the exact same way as you. Completely intimidated and full of self-doubt. Never being one to completely give up, I started painting monochromatic girls as a way to be able to paint the sweet and adorable little girls that I longed to paint without having to learn to mix and apply skin tones.
This method has enabled me to focus, instead, on learning to paint eyes, noses, and mouths in different ways, and to develop my own unique style. This class is for beginners to advanced watercolor lovers.
In this class you’ll learn:
How to mix three different shades of black – light, medium, and dark
How to begin doing basic shading
Two different ways to start your painting so that you can try them out and choose what method you like best
An easy way to paint eyes, noses, and mouths
You’ll get to see me create two watercolor faces, one which came out great and one which came out not-so-great. I decided to keep the not-so-successful face in this class because it is super encouraging and motivating to me when other artists share their not-so-great works.
So, come along with me as I take you step-by-step through my super fun and easy process of painting sweet and adorable watercolor faces. I can’t wait to see you in class!

Hi, I'm Kimma Smith ~ I’m a self-taught artist and am head-over-heels in love with watercolor.
I'm inspired by nature, color, and watercolor itself. Watercolor does enchanting things all on its own. Truly magical things happen by simply dropping watercolor into other wet colors or just dropping color into a clear wet spot on watercolor paper, and letting the watercolor do its thing. Adding splashes of water and sprinkles of salt do spellbinding things, causing blooms of magic to appear before your eyes.
As I’m sure you can tell, watercolor has captured my heart and soul. It never fails to engage my mind and delight my inner child.
Besides making art...
My other creative passions are music and writing. I play the classic (silver) flute and Native American flutes. I'm also teaching myself to play the piano.
