  • Natacha Umar, Nigeria

    What an exciting course! Drawing tips, painting explained and using different media too, I am inspired to look for my own subjects to paint. I have plenty of ideas I now want to get down on paper and now I believe I can. Worth it? Oh yes!

  • Martha Strogen, Arizona, USA

    I Took the Watercolor and Mixed Media course first. That was fun. I have a lot of random art supplies, and I was able to use a lot of different things in the various projects.

  • Marilyn Tooke, Guildford, Surrey, UK

    During lockdown in the dark cold days of January I came across Michele’s YouTube videos and was hooked! She explains everything so simply and is wonderfully down to earth! I started her basic course and just loved the challenges that went with each module.

FAQ

  • Do I have to complete the course in a certain timeframe?

    No, absolutely not, complete the course as and when you wish.

  • Why is the course priced in US dollars?’

    Simply put, I need to use a specialist site with a lot of functionality to deliver this course. All of these sites are American, and although I am English, two thirds of my customers come from the US. If you are in another country don’t worry, safe payment is by PayPal and it will automatically convert to the correct local currency. As a rough guide, for those in the UK $197 Dollars is approx £157 GBP depending on daily exchange rates. For other countries simply google the exchange rate on the day you pay to get an approximate guide.

  • What will I learn?

    You will complete 8 full paintings, each combining a watercolor with a different medium. You will be provided with an attractive source photo, full materials list, downloadable PDF written instructions and a step-by-step video. Scroll further down the page for the full curriculum with subjects and mediums!

  • How will I ask questions?

    There is a messaging facility within the course where you can send me a direct message, or you can just email me: [email protected]

  • Where can I get the materials I need?

    You probably already have many of the materials, unless you are completely new to painting. Your materials list will tell you the exact colors and brands I use, but also give you color swaps so you aren't wasting money if you have something similar already.

  • Is the course suitable for beginners?

    Although most people will come to the course with a little watercolor experience, there's absolutely nothing that a beginner with enthusiasm can't tackle!
