CONFUSED BY COLOR?


I get it. It took me years to even begin to understand colors in paintings let alone how to mix my own custom colors.


In this class I walk you through all of the elements of "color theory" that helped me understand. I put it in quotes because we do go into the details, but I try to only focus on the parts that were essential to understand.


This class has about 3.5 hours of follow along instruction. This includes 5 practical exercises where we actually do some paintings to help us better grasp the concepts we're discussing!

Ready to unlock the vibrant world of watercolor?

Whether you're a beginner or looking to elevate your color mixing skills, this course is perfect for you! We'll start with the essentials—primary, secondary, and tertiary colors, and the color wheel—then dive into deeper topics like value, undertones, palettes, and even skin tones.

Ready to understand how to mix any color?

If the thought of mixing custom colors feels a bit intimidating, don't worry—that's exactly what we'll tackle together. My goal is to help you build a strong foundation in color theory and mixing, then guide you through exercises that will make those skills second nature.

Throughout the course, you'll have the chance to paint and mix alongside me, which is especially helpful if you're a hands-on learner. We’ll explore how mixing your own colors compares to using pre-made ones, compare warm and cool tones and see how they can transform your piece, and learn how complementary colors can truly expand your palette. We’ll also play with contrast and experiment with different color palettes to make your paintings pop.
