What you’ll learn…

A close-up of a colorful Day Lily with petals in shades of pink, purple, and cream, and bright yellow stamens at the center. Titled "Luminous".
Painting of white daisies with yellow centers among green stems and leaves, with colorful abstract background. Titled "Marguerite Daisies".
A detailed watercolor painting of a pink dahlia flower with intricate petal layers, yellow highlights near the center, and green background. The artist's signature 'Marney' is in the bottom right corner. Titled "Pink Dahlia".

In this 8-lesson course, Marney will guide you through all stages of creating your painting. From selecting the right reference photo to learning how to capture light, this course is designed to help you find your voice as an artist. It is intended for intermediate artists, who should have some familiarity with basic watercolour techniques, such as painting wet-in-wet. This isn’t a live course; there's no Zoom component or pre-recorded lessons. Instead, it is designed to be completely flexible and self-paced, allowing you to start and stop whenever you like.

What’s Included:

  • Printable PDFs related to the lesson, such as photographing flowers for painting, composition, values, etc.

  • An image showing one of Marney’s paintings at different stages, from the initial drawing to the finished piece, accompanied by commentary for each stage.

  • Progressive images showing the development of work by 5 previous students over 8 lessons, including a critique of each student's work at each stage (or their reference photos for lesson one).

  • A list of general points dealing with the most common issues the students face in each lesson.

  • Six videos of Marney demonstrating various techniques, such as negative painting or soft edges, some on an original work in progress. While these are not professionally-made videos, students from previous courses found them very helpful.

This course is designed to inspire and empower you to develop your own painting style. The main focus is helping you learn how to get started, develop your own ideas, and address challenges independently. Through the techniques and concepts shared by Marney, you will gain insights that help you transform your own unique vision into original works of art.
