In my Winter Watercolor Flex class, students will learn beginner-friendly watercolor techniques while painting festive winter scenes, including a snowman, penguin, hot cocoa mug, and Christmas tree. Each week, a pre-recorded video lesson will guide learners step by step through the painting process, with a focus on blending, layering, and adding fun details. Alongside the art instruction, I’ll share engaging facts about winter and seasonal themes to keep learners curious and inspired. My teaching style is warm, encouraging, and easy to follow, ensuring kids feel confident as they create. Although this is a self-paced class, learners will have the opportunity to interact with me by sharing their artwork in the classroom discussion forum, where I will provide personalized feedback, encouragement, and celebrate their creativity.
