Why we picked it

Personally, I think watercolour is one of the most expressive mediums out there. Its fluidity and transparency create images that feel soft yet dramatic all at once. Watercolour has the wonderful perk of portability — you can easily slip your paints and paper into your bag or pocket and create whenever inspiration hits. I like to compare it to the difference between playing a piano and playing a guitar. You can’t just take a piano everywhere, but a guitar can go wherever you do. Watercolour is that guitar — flexible, personal, and always ready for you. In this class, we’ll create a detailed, poster-sized chart that can be framed as a piece of art or simply hung on the wall for painting reference. This project gives new artists the chance to explore both basic and intricate watercolor techniques while making something beautiful.                                    <img src="https://doavub8d2uzrx.cloudfront.net/media/files/temp/77956c78-7036-4709-85f9-a4fbf14557f2/
