Water coloring

I am loving the water coloring I am doing, I'm learning the blending techniques with it.

Good introduction

Easy to follow techniques!

Loose Watercoloring Confidence Boost

I am not confident with watercoloring because I don't practice enough. I wanted to do a challenge using Altenew's Magnolia Ballerina and 12 pan watercolor set. This class really made me feel confident in the process and my project came out really well. The class was informative, not at all overwhelming, and very worthwhile. Thanks, Lydia!

Perfect class for beginners like me!

The class is very informative and it gave me a lot of useful tips, like loose watercoloring techniques and swatching. Thank you, Lydia, for a great class!
