Welcome to Valkyrie, a watercolor workshop!
I filmed this class during a very challenging time in my life.
I found that no matter what we are going through in our life,
we always have the strength and courage within to overcome…
I only we can find it within ourselves.
We are all warriors, one way or another.
In this workshop I show you my favorite techniques with watercolor:
How to layer to avoid mud, creating luminous skin tones, and depth.
I also share some tips and tricks on adding texture, linework, gold,
and special effects while staying loose and intuitive at the same time.
I hope you enjoy creating with me!
