What is a Foundations Course?
Foundations courses methodically walk through many techniques to get artists started on larger artworks (not card-sized); no one was around to help ME make that transition, so I'm going to teach YOU all the things I wish someone taught me, and in an order that makes sense. Each one will build on the last, growing skills and knowledge throughout a watercolorist's journey through the series.
What experience is required for a Level 4 class?
Solid but not extensive experience with watercolor is important for Foundations courses. These classes are designed to help artists make the jump from small to large format, or to give the experienced larger-format painter new ideas for approaching painting techniques.
These courses are not for beginners; I would recommend beginning with Watercolor Jumpstart if you've never done any watercolor at all, as that class deals with basic pigment mixing and management.
Do I need to know how to draw?
For this Landscape series, only limited drawing skills are needed. That's deliberate - I wanted to make watercolor accessible to those with limited drawing experience! So no buildings will be included in these aside from very minor elements so that perspective experience isn't required. Trees, hills, rocks, and skies are easy and forgiving subject matter, and photo resources are carefully selected to help keep the focus on subjects that are doable.

Having found Trees 1 so enjoyable, I signed up for this class right away… did not disappoint! One of my very favorite classes ever. I look back on some of the paintings, and can’t believe I really did them! Not only that, it gave me the confidence and the knowledge to start painting some of my own landscapes with trees. The suggestions on brushes and paints – invaluable, just as are the techniques and insights that Sandy shares. I love that Sandy and other student artists from her classes share on Facebook and Instagram making such an exciting community!
