Watercolors<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For over two decades, I\u2019ve been practicing with this versatile medium in my sketchbooks and projects. Watercolors offer a transportable, versatile, and stunning way to create a variety of illustrations. There are many blending techniques you can use, surprising color combinations to utilize, and plenty of ways to correct mistakes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019m well aware, however, that watercolors can be intimidating. Successful use of watercolors depends on a solid understanding of color mixing, water-to-paint ratios, and the control of water flow. Achieving desired results and mastering techniques like layering, wet-on-wet, or dry brush can take time and practice. The good news? I\u2019m here and happy to teach you everything you need to know.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/thepostmansknock.com\/catalog\/the-ultimate-beginners-watercolor-online-course\/\">ENROLL IN THE ULTIMATE BEGINNER&#8217;S WATERCOLOR COURSE \u2192<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n<section class=\"wp-block-group alignfull is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\" style=\"margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--600-rem);margin-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--600-rem)\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-e0e4babd wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\" style=\"padding-right:0;padding-left:0\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-style-default has-quaternary-background-color has-background is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\" style=\"padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--400-rem);padding-right:15%;padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--400-rem);padding-left:15%\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28f84493 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thepostmansknock.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/image-6-edited.webp?w=736&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1728257\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thepostmansknock.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/lindsey_sketchbooking1-edited.jpg?w=736&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Sketchbooking\" class=\"wp-image-1727598\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"is-style-superheading\" style=\"margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--300-rem)\">\u2014 Begin Your Watercolor Journey<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-xxx-large-font-size\">About the Ultimate Beginner\u2019s Watercolor Online Course<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Ultimate Beginner\u2019s Watercolor Online Course is an incredible investment for a watercolor beginner.

That&#8217;s why we take everything slow and start with the basics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You&#8217;ll begin by making a color chart and plain patterns, then you&#8217;ll move on to simple lavender and starry sky illustrations. Next, you&#8217;ll practice making shapes so you can understand how contouring works. Then, we launch into my favorite part of the course: the projects! First, you&#8217;ll make a vibrant pink peony. Next, you&#8217;ll move on to a butterfly, whose tiny wings we&#8217;ll embellish with a dip pen. After that comes a Dutch row home, which will teach you the principles of architectural drawing. The last project is a portrait, and its creation requires every technique you learned in the previous lessons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button is-style-fill\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link  wp-element-button\" href=\"#\">learn more \u2192<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-not-stacked-on-tablet is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28f84493 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large has-custom-border\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thepostmansknock.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/1watercolor_course_pics-9.jpg?w=736&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" style=\"border-top-left-radius:100px\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thepostmansknock.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/1watercolor_course_pics-11.jpg?w=736&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large has-custom-border\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thepostmansknock.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/2watercolor_course_pics-4.jpg?w=736&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" style=\"border-bottom-left-radius:100px\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large has-custom-border\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thepostmansknock.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/1watercolor_course_pics-8.jpg?w=736&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" style=\"border-top-right-radius:100px\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thepostmansknock.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/2watercolor_course_pics-6.jpg?w=736&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large has-custom-border\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thepostmansknock.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/2watercolor_course_pics-14.jpg?w=736&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" style=\"border-bottom-right-radius:100px\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n<section class=\"wp-block-group alignfull is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\" style=\"margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--600-rem);margin-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--600-rem)\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group alignwide has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center is-style-superheading\" style=\"margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--300-rem)\">\u2014 Learners Love The Ultimate Beginner&#8217;s Watercolor Course<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center has-xxx-large-font-size\">Hear From Students<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group alignwide has-medium-border-radius is-style-box-shadow has-background-background-color has-background is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\" style=\"padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--250-rem);padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--250-rem);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--250-rem);padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--250-rem)\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28232c24 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"is-italic has-medium-line-height has-light-font-weight\">I highly recommend this watercolor course!

Lindsey has such a down to earth style, and I found the informality comfortable and relaxing. It was like someone REAL was teaching it. It\u2019s hard to explain, but I found the whole format easy to watch and learn from. The last project, a portrait, I figured would come out entirely amateurish and frustrating. Yes, it is amateur, it\u2019s my first, but damn if it didn\u2019t inspire me to want to try another and honestly, it was much better than I thought it would be. \ud83d\ude42 This course was well worth the money. I find Lindsey inspiring and enjoyable to watch. She\u2019s made me want to continue learning and playing with watercolors.

This course helped me to create watercolor paintings that I had NEVER dreamed I could make! Lindsey makes everything very approachable, as usual. I really learned quite a lot from the basic lessons about shape, color, and shadow. Soon, Lindsey had me layering colors together to create a beautiful flower that just jumped off the page. As the course progressed, I painted buildings, and even a portrait of a person! With the skills that Lindsey taught me, I was able to paint a picture of the home in which my husband and I were married, and then I was even able to paint a portrait of my own beloved dog. I never thought I would be the kind of person who could do any of this, so I think anyone who is even a little interested should give it a try.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-not-stacked-on-mobile is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-f50ea530 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\" style=\"margin-top:0\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:4rem\">\n<p class=\"has-large-line-height has-primary-color has-text-color has-huge-font-size\">\u275e<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading is-capitalized has-x-large-font-size\" id=\"h-andrea\" style=\"margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--150-rem);margin-bottom:0;line-height:1\">Andrea<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-primary-color has-text-color\" style=\"margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--100-rem);line-height:0.1\">TPK Student<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n<section class=\"wp-block-group alignwide has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--600-rem);margin-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--600-rem)\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group alignwide is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center is-style-superheading\" style=\"margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--300-rem)\">\u2014 Check Out Projects<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center has-xxx-large-font-size\">Ultimate Beginner&#8217;s Watercolor Online Course Student Work<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-medium-line-height has-x-large-font-size\">Here&#8217;s a small sampling of the projects that Ultimate Beginner&#8217;s Watercolor Online Course students are making.

Many learners already have some watercolor supplies that are sufficient for taking the course, and they supplement those supplies with supplies they don&#8217;t have. Take a look at the <a href=\"https:\/\/thepostmansknock.com\/supply-list-the-ultimate-beginners-watercolor-online-course\/\">supply list<\/a> to see if you already have what you need in order to take the course!<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1686609878374\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">How can I gift the Ultimate Beginner&#8217;s Watercolor Kit with enrollment in the Ultimate Beginner&#8217;s Watercolor Online Course?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">The best way to gift the kit and the course together is to purchase the calligraphy kit by itself (as opposed to bundling it with course enrollment). Then, purchase a <a href=\"https:\/\/thepostmansknock.com\/catalog\/gift-certificate\/\">gift certificate<\/a> for $50. Email me immediately upon making your purchase at lindsey@thepostmansknock.com, and I can include the gift certificate and instructions for how to enroll in the course in the kit package for your recipient.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1686610183433\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Does the Ultimate Beginner&#8217;s Watercolor Kit ship outside the USA?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Yes, TPK ships worldwide. Please be aware that your government may charge you a VAT (Value Added Tax) or a similar charge before they will deliver. International delivery times vary from 2-6 weeks.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1686610185171\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Will my access to the Ultimate Beginner&#8217;s Watercolor Online Course ever expire?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Once you enroll in The Ultimate Beginner&#8217;s Watercolor Online Course, you have access to its videos and material forever.

If something isn&#8217;t right with your kit, or you&#8217;ve started the online course and you have determined it&#8217;s not for you, email me at lindsey@thepostmansknock.com. <\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1686612754705\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">I&#8217;m in the USA.
