  • In depth review of the different brushes we will be using throughout the course
MODULES 3, 4 & 5

Understanding the Medium of Watercolour

This is where we start to understand the medium of watercolour. Why it does certain things on the page.

We then start doing fun exercises that teach you the essential techniques you need to master to enjoy watercolour! You then use these to produce your first simple paintings!

MODULES 6 & 7

You will then create two Simple Landscapes using techniques from previous modules

  • Wet in Wet Skies
  • Graduated Washes
  • Dry Brushing and Layers
MODULE 8

Having Fun With Watercolour

You will learn how to do fun things with watercolour like:

  • using a spray bottle
  • how to paint abstract shapes!
MODULE 9

Tonal Paintings with Paynes Grey

You will learn how to make sure you have light lights and dark darks in your paintings.

These tonal paintings take colour out of the picture and really help to keep it simple while producing beautiful landscapes. 

MODULES 10, 11, 12 & 13

Putting Techniques into Practice

In these modules you produce one painting in each module step by step.

You are putting into practice all the different techniques you have learnt and also starting to experiment a little! 

MODULES 14 & 15

Painting on a Larger Scale

In these modules, you will learn how easy it is to paint larger and what brushes you need to do this.

Just like the students that have completed this course before you, you will be surprised by what you can produce by the end of this course!

ABOUT ME

Hi, I'm Scott Swinson

Video Poster Image

I was very lucky at a young age to be introduced to watercolour by Tony Smibert in Tasmania. An amazing watercolourist and teacher. I am forever in his debt for giving me the gift of watercolour. 

I was also lucky to grow up in a place like Tasmania with untamed wilderness, amazing light and so many different landscapes to explore! 

I have been painting in watercolour for over 30 years. In that time I have travelled widely throughout Europe, America, Canada and South America, always with the intention of immersing myself in nature, climbing mountains and capturing light with my camera and later in my paintings. 

I have studied JMW Turner's original paintings at the Prints and Drawings Room at the Tate Britain over many years while I lived in London. He was such a master of painting light!

It has been a gradual evolution of visiting many galleries and observing art that inspired me and then working out how I might go about capturing that essence in my own painting.

I have held group and solo exhibitions in galleries in London, Sydney, Wollongong (NSW), Hobart (Tasmania), Hounville (Tasmania) and Deloraine (Tasmania). 

I have been teaching watercolour now for a number of years and my passion for this medium grows with me! Let me introduce you to a medium that is often considered difficult. Let me save you many years of frustration by holding your hand and helping you befriend this medium. It can be your friend!

"I really enjoyed the class and learned a lot of valuable techniques and strategies.  Your gorgeous Australian landscapes and philosophy helped me "loosen up" my painting.  Thank you!"

- Carol McMullen

"Just finished the course.  It was truly lovely and foundational.  

Love your work and approach to teaching.  Thank you so much!"

- Deborah Hamm

"Thank you so much for your generous method of teaching.  I still have a lot of practice to do but I am beginning to feel more comfortable with watercolour, perhaps even to love it!"

- Lillian Squire

"Thanks for putting your time and energy unto this course ... you have skills and insights to share and I loved learning in every moment."

- Kathleen Stewart
