Painting – Watercolor, Oil, & Digital Media


This class expands your skills by diving into the world of painting—across watercolor, oil, and digital formats. Learn how different mediums affect mood, texture, and expression, and discover how painting can be a natural evolution of your drawing practice. Lets punch up the color and explore how it changes our mood through art!

What You’ll Learn

Exploring Multiple Mediums (First 2.5 Days):

  • Work hands-on with watercolor, oil, and pencil to explore texture, layering, and mark-making across traditional media.

  • Develop a deeper understanding of how each medium communicates mood, story, and emotion.

  • Capture and photograph your work for use in digital exploration.

Digital Painting as a Medium & Creative Tool (Last 2.5 Days):

  • Learn digital painting in Procreate as a powerful medium in its own right—experiment with brushes, color palettes, and techniques that mimic or diverge from traditional styles.

  • Use digital tools to build on your analog work—refine compositions, test color schemes, and explore new visual directions without starting over.

  • Understand how digital painting can both stand alone and support your traditional process, giving you flexibility and freedom in your art-making.

Integrating Self-Promotion:
Throughout the course, students will document their creative processes, capturing "behind-the-scenes" content that showcases their unique approach and journey. This practice builds confidence and familiarity with self-promotion tools, ensuring students leave with a portfolio that communicates their artistic voice effectively.

Oil and Digital Combination

What You’ll Walk Away With:

  • Enhanced Creativity: A deep understanding of how digital tools can elevate artistic exploration, enabling bold experimentation and rapid iteration.

  • Self-Promotion Skills: Behind-the-scenes content and process documentation that highlight your unique journey as an artist.

  • Confidence in Technology: A better understanding of the power of Procreate, ready to integrate into your creative workflow.

  • A Holistic Toolkit: Techniques and workflows that combine the discipline of traditional painting with the flexibility of digital innovation.

This class doesn’t just teach you how to create—it elevates how you think about art, opening doors to new ideas, bold experimentation, and a future where creativity and technology work together to fuel your potential.
