Ultimate guide to Watercolours for Beginners

Watercolour is one of the most satisfying mediums to paint with. Understanding the nature of its uncontrollability, and watching the colours blend magically on the paper is what makes this medium so addictive.

Watercolour techniques is one of the most widely requested topic, so this class is all about the basic building blocks of watercolours. This class contains everything you need to know as a beginner to master watercolours.

This class is going to be in two parts:

• The first part will focus on all the watercolor techniques, different watercolor materials, watercolor textures and everything under the sun that you will need to know to begin your art journey. 
• The second part has several painting projects which we will be painting using the techniques that we have learnt in the first part. 

Attached, in the resources section is a free eBook written by me which collates everything discussed in this class. The ebook also contains several tips, tricks and suggestions that will help you in mastering the basics of watercolours.
