  • Class was amazing and very easy to follow! And it definitely allowed me to get back into painting!
  • Judith was great! Can’t do next session, but will be back! M
  • I enjoyed this course and learned so much. I am thrilled with the paintings I created. The demo lessons were easy to follow and the skills learned have given me more confidence in my abilities.
  • It was really fun! The instructor was very understanding and patient and I ended up with a painting that I was very proud of. I would definitely take the course again.
  • Allison is a fabulous instructor.
  • Painting in Watercolor Level 2 is at least a 5 experience. The teacher leads you through doing a complete painting and on the way you learn new techniques and ways to approach painting things
  • I took the class along with my son. We really enjoyed it and learned a lot. We learned about technique and also to enjoy the process. Great class and instructor!
  • I really enjoyed the course. Directions were fun and easy to follow and the teacher and classmates were welcoming and engaging. I would recommend to anyone looking to take the next step in their craft.
  • Splendid.
  • Thought teacher covered the basics of painting in watercolors extremely well. She always touched base with the class on their progress and very open to our questions
  • Loved the class and Anna the instructor. Well worth the money. My husband and I enjoyed the time together and learning the basic techniques.
  • Never thought I could paint watercolor in one lesson but was able to follow the teacher and I did pretty well!
  • I have never been good at drawing and was skeptical as I signed up for this course. Surprisingly, I learned a lot. The instructor was very accessible and taught in a very structured, clear way and I actually learned to paint and learned something about mixing colors and in general feel much more comfortable about my abilities. I would have liked to continue but I believe the instructor went to Europe at the end of the class. I would give the experience a 4.5, simply because I would have preferred to do it in person.
  • Anji led a delightful watercolor project that left me happy with my end product painting and the class.
  • The instructor was a delight and the class was great!
  • Great class.
  • I learned more from Elizabeth in this class than in three years of other classes. I’m also enjoying my own work so much more.
  • This is the second class I've taken with this instructor and plan on taking more. Great environment and I learned so much!
  • Fantastic class and instructor. Appropriate for all levels. Lots of great feedback and encouragement. I learned a tremendous amount.
  • Allison is an excellent teacher. I have signed up to continue taking her classes
  • Wennie’s a great teacher! She very clearly demonstrates the technique students will use in their paintings.
  • Class was great....I learned exactly what I needed to know to move forward. Helpful evaluations and wonderful demonstrations.
  • Class was great. Painting techniques were broken down into easily understandable movements we watched and then practiced on 3 different trees. Variation welcomed and feedback on each of our pieces. Really worthwhile.
  • So fun, informative and helpful! Instructor Claire was supportive and professional. Would definitely recommend to others!
  • Eggplants in Dry Brush Watercolor

    This course provides step-by-step instruction in dry brush watercoloring and Carrie Di Costanzo caters her instruction to accomodate the learning needs of both novice and experienced watercolor artists. Overall, the class met my expectations. Carrie's well-defined course syllabus with its art supply list, her model eggplant drawing, and palette color mixing guide gave attendees a nice headstart for a successful painting experience. There were sufficient breaks to move around and class time went by quickly. It was a thrill to virtually meet up with similar-minded individuals from across the country and observe everyone's progress throughout the day.
  • Great class and Claire was a great instructor.
  • Really enjoyed this class and learned a great deal. Laura Habian was wonderful and explained things so well and was very encouraging. Definitely recommend this class and will look for others that are similar. Watercolor isn't something you can master in a few classes and I want to learn more. Thank you, Laura! Karen
  • I loved the Virtual Intermediate Watercolor Florals class with Jade! You do not have to be an "expert" as Jade walks you through everything step by step and my end product was beautiful! I really like that this class gives you more actual painting time than most of the "beginner" classes where they spend a lot of time going over the basics. Jade is an amazing teacher and I credit her for helping me to fall in love with watercolor painting during the pandemic. I look forward to taking this class again!
  • Marcelo is a gifted and outstanding instructor. This was a new approach to watercolor for me, but I learned more in six weeks than then the past two years of lessons. I would highly recommend this class and hopefully will take another class with Marcelo in the future. Mary
  • I am a true beginner with no prior experience. I learned about brushes, brush strokes, and paint mixing. Judith gave me great critiques with very good tips. The only negative is that the students seemed to be sorted by age instead of experience. I was the only “newby” so it was a bit intimidating.
  • Loved my class. Well worth the money, can’t wait for the next!
  • Great for follow along painting. Learn tips and tricks as you go.
  • I had never used watercolors before and had never taken a painting class. By the end of it, I had discovered a new activity that I could play with, and on a personal level I recognized my old perfectionism trying to reassert itself. By allowing myself to paint and not be concerned with doing it “right” or “perfectly,” I gained not only the enjoyment of experimenting with paints, but also a feeling of satisfaction knowing I hadn’t cheated myself out of a lovely experience. Claire was a wonderfully encouraging teacher!
  • I loved this class. The teacher was so friendly and knowledgeable and was so easy to learn from. So happy I took this class and will definitely take more.
  • Jade is a patient, encouraging teacher. Love her classes.
  • Jade Scarlett is an excellent teacher! I’m always amazed of the art I painted!
  • Arianna, the instructor, was just wonderful. She's an excellent artist and equally as good as a teacher. Her instructions were clear and easy to follow, even for first timers like my sister in law and I. Arianna had a very pleasant personality and comfortably connected with us all. The pace of the class was also good. I look forward to taking another class with her in the future.
  • The instructor was very polite and continually checked with the participants during the painting process. I have a great painting, of which I'm very proud of... thanks to the instructor!
  • Jade Scarlett is awesome! She reviewed materials and how to use them properly, showed us techniques, and then followed her clear instructions. This was my first watercolor class and I thoroughly enjoyed it! I highly recommend this class taught by Jade.
  • Jade is a highly knowledgeable professional.
  • This was a great introduction to watercolor painting for me. I loved the small class size and interactive nature of the instruction. I'll be back!!
  • Th e teacher was kind and helpful. She answered my questions and was very knowledgeable and informative
  • Loved the class… the more I work with gouache, the more I love it. Jade is a great teacher always explaining new elements of painting
  • I loved this class… Jade was great teaching us new techniques to used on this more complicated intermediate scene
  • Loved the class. It was very enjoyable!
  • Zach was an outstanding teacher!! I learned a lot about watercolor techniques, color theory, & how to mix & create colors. Awesome course for beginner!!!!
  • I love Jade Scarlet's classes. I always learn something new.
  • jade is always good. She moves a little faster than I can keep up with, but sends the recorded class, so it's all good.
  • Loved this intro class to watercolor. The instructor gave great direction and I enjoyed the techniques that were shown for watercolors.
  • A great introductory class. The instructor was great, very friendly and informative. We learned a couple different watercolor painting techniques and had the freedom to create whatever we wanted, just following the flow. Highly recommend!
