Learn to do a simple but effective line drawing of an elephant (even if you think you can’t draw)
Turn it into a painting just using water!
Great for beginners and a quick project for those who are time and or attention poor (it’s not just me is it?)
Simplicity is key! Only very limited supplies are needed - you may already have what you need for this class
Watercolour paper (or a sketchbook that can take a light wash)
Watercolour markers (I will use tombow dual tips and the Elegant Writer, but any watersoluble pen or marker will do)
Pencil for sketching
Round brush suitable for watercolour
I will also use some water colour paints, but these are optional
3 full length paintings all in real time, from blank page to finished elephant. Total video time is approximately 120 minutes, but all broken down into manageable pieces.
Yes! All of the videos are fully narrated. I talk a lot (or so I'm told) which means there are lots of tips and guidance at every stage. You can follow me along every step of the way.
The class is self paced. You get immediate (and forever) access to the whole class so you can binge/pace yourself and of course, rewatch at your convenience. You can also speed up or slow down the videos to your liking.
