Description
As a selling artist I know what works and what doesn't. Follow me and see how to sell you work as I did with this painting.
An EXTRA lecture has been added in response to a student's question.
ALSO NEW assignments section has been added at the end of the course
This is a 'learn as you paint' workshop. In other words you will be learning how to paint with water colors as you actually paint a picture. Complete this bright and juicy picture of the strawberries on a plate and improve on your existing skills and learn others..
Follow each VIDEO DEMONSTRATION for the techniques to complete the painting. Relax and enjoy painting as and when it suits you and at your own pace, and see how well one of my students got on with the same picture at the end.
At anytime you can post questions for any advice and also for feedback on your finished painting.
There are also plenty additional notes, professional tips, and extra tuition notes which you can download to build you own 'theory' folder'.
Why choose one of my courses?
Because, as a self-taught artist I understand how a lot of people feel about their creative work, sometimes anxious, sometimes overwhelmed and often that it's not 'good enough'. I will hold your hand as you overcome these fears as I offer a friendly, relaxed and sensitive teaching style.
I also have years of experience of teaching people of all levels both in person and via the internet.
Do one of my courses and you will feel as if I am in the room with you every step of the way.
Enjoy your painting, love Nicola

Why choose one of my courses?

Here's a bit about me.
I originally trained as a graphic artist, and then followed a different career path working in the national media, travel and public relations in both London and Paris.
Cutting a long story very short I am now living in the south of France, near the Spanish border. I teach people how to paint with watercolours in classes and when they come on holidays.
As you can see I also teach via the internet and have my own online painting school called Painting with Nicola. If you want to know more about that, message me for details.
KEEP safe and Keep painting. Love Nicola
