As she paints in real time, we are given tips and advice on how to bring our paintings to life. I'm really a beginner, but I love your artwork so much that I tried the class. This class was just what I needed to find my watercolor legs again and to remember the joy of paintng! she inspires us with her talent and also reminds us of the importance of painting with joy and authenticity. Cara shares her extensive knowledge and experience as a watercolor painter in this beautiful class.
