Coffee Time
Two different complete projects included. The sweet Moka pot and a lovely latte in a cup. Tracing patterns included. Using a limited supply list let the paint mix and merge on the page instead of premixing colours
Coffee has become such a part of our lives and there are as many ways to make and drink it. Here is the delightful Moka Pots that I use with freshly ground beans and colourful pots… or the decadent beautifully sculpted milky foam on the latte cups! Choose from 2 different projects , downloadable patterns, video of painting each card, suitable for all ages and no painting experience necessary

Irina Bartnik“Carla is a patient, delightful instructor! ”
Freda“Carla your teaching style is informative, fun and very helpful! No pressure to be a perfect artist. :: Get your brush wet and be creative wherever you are! :: Diane Goodwin ”
“:: I have taken several of Carla’s classes and highly recommend them. She is so much fun and every class has taught me a huge variety of things. ::”
Donna Telford“ I took Carla's level 1 & 2 water colour class. Carla teaches with a sense of humor, patience and makes it fun. She made us believe we could do it and we did! Her relaxed demeanor quickly made us relax. She went over techniques with us until we understood and spent 1:1 time helping us perfect our brush strokes. Such a fun class!”

I’ve always wanted to TRY watercolour but … its sooooooo hard!
Watercolour is FAST drying, FAST blending, FAST Painting and soooo PORTABLE
Three Factors to Consider: Paint, Paper, Water and WATER control is the most important!
Its reasonably priced. With a few tubes of paint you can paint for a very long time. And the portable palette makes it useable anywhere. Virtually no waste, brushes rarely ruined,
Its CLEAN, No need to change clothes or protect the surface, no gloves, dispose of water in sink, no toxins, brushes swish clean in water
Watercolour is a wilful, unpredictable medium that does not like to be pushed around too much! Learn its magical secrets with Carla’s Classes
Lets embrace IMPERFECTION!
PAINTERLY = Expressive :: this style is more about Feeling than Details
Watercolour COLLABORATES with us. Adds its own unpredictable but delightful variations
No canvases to store, just paper. Make useful art with cards, or try sketchbooks to record your life or a vacation
Once you sign up you can enjoy the classes for up to a year.
NOPE….These classes are demonstrations mostly of skills … the colours you use make the paintings your own! Or Make a bigger painting not a card. Up to you! Have FUN painting! That’s most important
YUP …. That’s the fun part about these classes. Each project is small … Just get another piece of paper if you arent happy with your project, or turn it over there are two sides! These are Skills Classes that help you develop from wherever you start your Watercolour Journey! Welcome to the Magic Medium!!!!
