Watercolor Confidence

Tips, Tricks & Creative Play

A 6-week watercolor course at Oregon Art Center

🎨🖌️

Watercolor can feel mysterious—but it doesn’t have to stay that way. In this fun, encouraging course, you’ll learn approachable techniques to help you work with watercolor more confidently and joyfully. Think of it as six weeks of discovery, experimentation, and skill-building you’ll return to again and again. Whether you're just beginning or rekindling a long-lost watercolor practice, this course will help you reconnect with the medium, loosen up, and paint with more ease.

  • Color magic—how to mix the hues you love and create a palette that feels uniquely yours

  • Texture, lettering, and detail work that bring depth and personality to your paintings
