Hi, I’m Darren from Watercolour Mentor. Ever wondered how to turn a photo or landscape scene into a painting? In this class, I will show you how! You’ll build your confidence and create some beautiful artwork by understanding the simple process I take in planning out each painting.

You’ll learn how to quickly analyze and break down a reference photo into basic shapes, elements, areas such as sky, land, water, as well as simplifying buildings and other objects. You will learn how to recombine all these elements to make your own unique scene and create areas of focus, as well as alter the composition of the painting to your liking. It’s easier than it sounds, and you’ll be at it in no time!

BONUS Workshop Included: Learn how to paint natural landscapes.
