Learn to build it. Then break it apart.

Watercolor has a way of exposing every hesitant brushstroke, bro. The solution isn't more control. It's understanding the fundamentals so you can finally loosen your grip and let the paint do its thing.

Five courses. One complete system for painting loose, expressive watercolors.

The Watercolor Deconstruction Lab is built around one idea: construct to deconstruct.

First, learn how drawing, value, color, and composition work. Then learn to simplify, experiment, and break away from rigid techniques.
