Description

UPDATED January 2026

You may be surprised what SIMPLE little change can make a BIG


After many years of teaching people how to paint with watercolour paints, I have noticed the same problems cropping up time and again.

So, I have created this course in order to help beginners and experienced painting students alike to overcome a variety of techniques.

Some of the videos you might have seen on my YouTube channel, but some have been taken from my LIVE tuition and contributions I have made elsewhere. Get yourself a dedicated watercolour painting book and practice the lecture that you have the most trouble with. Make notes and comments on how your painting is improving.

Gain confidence as you get a better understanding of how to paint shadows, manipulate paint, reproduce cylindrical perspective, painting inside different shapes and mixing colours. These things come with practice and experience, but these lectures will help speed up the process. It may also improve your observational skills. As I have said many times, 'I teach my students to LOOK and not only to paint.'

I have also included a few tips, tricks and techniques to add something special to your work. Taking your painting to a higher and more eye-catching level.

So what are you waiting for, get painting and most of all have fun.


Keep safe and keep painting, love Nicola
