About Course

Are you a complete beginner? Are you an artist experienced in painting with other media? Have you already begun to paint with watercolours but want to learn more about basic techniques? With a series of lessons, assignments and one-to-one guidance from Tessa using Zoom, Simply Watercolours is the course for you.

In 10 units comprising a total of 19 videos, accomplished artist Tessa Baker will guide you from the materials that you will need through to the techniques, concepts and theory that will help you develop your skills as a watercolour artist.

Because of the need to keep continuity across the extensive one-to-one sessions, the course must be completed in 20 months, however you have continued access to course after that time.

This course includes over 3 hours of video, plus assessments and one-on-one video calls for a truly personalized experience.
