Hi, I’m Natalie Martin, an Australian watercolor artist, based on Wadawurrung country (Surf Coast, Victoria, Australia).
The fluidity and subtlety of watercolour is only enhanced through working with layers, you can create a beautiful luminosity. This is quite unique to watercolor and one of the main reasons I love this medium so much.
This intermediate course is my third professionally filmed online course, following on from Welcome to Watercolor and the Magic of Colour Mixing.Â
In it, we’ll dig into basic and more advanced layering techniques, you’ll spend time experimenting with ways to layer pigment, and learn how to create different effects (as long as you can muster the patience to let things dry properly as you go!) You’ll gain greater insight into my practice, as we explore how to create artworks with greater complexity, detail and interest. We also take time to delve into common errors and equipment care.Â
This course is the perfect next step once you’ve mastered the basics. Layering work brings watercolor to its greatest potential, and I can’t wait to see how you continue to develop your practice and build confidence in painting with this magical medium.Â
What to expect:Â
9 videos with an overall run time of 2 hours and 40 minutes minutes. You’ll be able to access these videos whenever you like as this is a self paced course. You’ll also have lifetime access, so are able to go back and review episodes at your leisure.

- A comprehensive overview of watercolor layering techniquesÂ
