Flow, fade & paint the calm of winter
Step into the hush of a snow-covered world — soft mountains fading into mist, tall pines standing proud in the cold, and that peaceful silence only winter can bring. In this Watercolour Winter Landscape session, it’s all about fluid brushstrokes, gentle gradients, and the magic of letting water do the work.
You’ll learn how to layer translucent blues and greys, add soft shadows, and capture the quiet glow of light on snow. No rush, no rules — just you, your brush, and the serene rhythm of winter unfolding on paper.
