    Natalie, you are a very generous teacher. I enjoyed your natural style of engaging with us (including you saying the occasional "oops"

    Joy

    5 star rating.png__PID:667cb22e-88e7-4c75-af44-1e1e7fe95282

    Inspiring and informational class that develops building block skills to use them in more complex paintings. I really appreciated the use of Australian flowers, just what I was looking for! And I love the colours Natalie uses which made the class so enjoyable to watch and follow along.

    Louise

    I truly enjoyed this tutorial. Very well explained and so easy to understand. She has made great and simple examples everyone can follow. I highly recommend this class. It’s not just about creating, but creating something you can call your own.

    Natalie has a rare ability to explain and demonstrate techniques in a way that actually liberates creativity and freedom of expression. She is generous in explaining her own techniques and the passion and enthusiasm expressed in her teaching is infectious. Highly recommended - particularly if you need to loosen up and get out of your head!!

    Carol

    Very engaging, helpful, inspiring and well produced. The individual courses of this series nicely complement each other.

    Natalie has generously shared her expertise and experience - I do feel like her course can level up any watercolour enthusiast! Also she encourages her students to have courage and find and use their own creative licence - a great message to remember always!! Thanks Natalie, much appreciated.

    Michelle

    I'm blown away by Natalie's class once again. This is her best so far. The final project artwork she creates on camera has taught me so much. It really demystified complex looking watercolour paintings for me. I want to thank her for teaching this course.

    Rashi

    This teacher gives a clear way of explaining how to put down meaningful impressions of your subject. Have watched each of her videos several times and gleaned something new each time.

    Fantastic class for anyone who wants to develop the skills they need to make their own artwork. The exercises are awesome. The final project is a serious challenge!
