Welcome to my class 30 Days of Dreamy Watercolor Landscapes.

Watercolor is a medium that surprises me every time I try a new painting. Every day there is a new inventory or a new color accidentally made from mixing random colors.  It is an unpredictable medium that offers many surprises.

In this class, I will guide you through 30 days of painting dreamy watercolor landscapes. The projects I have chosen are truly beautiful and I bet you'll have an incredible time each day as you discover new techniques, color combinations, tips and tricks. I believe that everyone can paint, and I am sure we have all had the desire to paint something at one time or another. Painting has a healing, calming and transformative effect on us. It's less about the end result and more about the process and experience. If you have always wanted to paint, or if you'd like to start a creative routine, join me on this 30 Day Watercolor Challenge. I will help you build a collection of stunning watercolor landscapes that you will be very proud of.

I will guide you on the materials you need to get started. From choosing the right paper to mixing the right colors to the brushes needed to paint a picture.
We will also do a thorough color study where you will also learn about pigments and how to mix your own values with different colors.

With each project, I will explain in detail the color palette, different techniques, and the steps to follow before we begin the main project. This will help you get a better idea of how you should approach the project. This will also help you to be confident enough to tackle the painting, and you will have a better experience painting and enjoy the process more.

Even if you have no previous experience, you are welcome to take this class. I will explain every little thing in detail so you do not feel like a beginner.

If you like this class, please leave a review that will help this class reach more students.

I'm so excited to have you here. Thanks a lot for joining :)
