Course Description


The simplicity of this painting will make you look like a pro. This painting is what watercolorists refer to as an, "Urban Sketching". Most urban sketching paintings are often of a street scene or encompass a larger scene area.  I thought it would be more inviting to dive into this painting method by just painting part of a street front dwelling. 

What you will learn in this class:

A looser style of painting
How to mix shades of greens for shrubbery
Balance your colors within the painting
How to accent the painting with ink



Class Includes:

Supply List
Traceable Printout
Brief Drawing Instructions
Finished Painting Printout
Step by Step Video Instruction


So join me while I show you step by step how to paint this charming painting style.  I specialize in photorealism tho I enjoy the diversity that art has to offer. So come along with me as I take you into a world of learning many styles of painting in watercolor. I use the same method of teaching online as I do in my studio. It is a proven, simple straight forward approach to teaching.
