In this online course you will learn

How to paint in watercolor from the very first wash of color to the final details, following a clear method guided by the experience of a professional painter.
You will learn all the essential pillars of the technique without wasting time or money on unnecessary materials or months of trial-and-error.

You will learn:

1. How to choose and use the essential materials (paper, brushes, colors) so you avoid pointless purchases and start with the right tools.


2. How to understand and control water on the paper: humidity, timing, edges and clean transitions.


3. How to work wet-on-wet to create smooth washes, textures and depth with layered, transparent color.


4. How to build a complete painting step by step through four guided scenes: sunset, lighthouse, waterfall and boat.


5. How to avoid the most common beginner mistakes (muddy color, blooms, overworked areas) so you can finish a watercolor with confidence.

By the end of the course, you will be able to paint scenes like these — not by copying, but because you understand the technique behind them, backed by the guidance of a professional watercolorist.

VICENTE GARCĂŤA FUENTES RI

Painting has been part of my life since childhood — it has always been my way of communicating with the world. My artistic journey changed completely when I received an artist residency grant that took me to Iceland. There, surrounded by glaciers, mist, and endless light, watercolor became my language to capture silence, atmosphere, and depth.

Today, I focus on distilling the essence of the landscapes that inspire me — skies, ice, sea, volcanoes — always guided by one obsession: **light**. Every composition is adjusted to express not just what I see, but what I feel.

In 2025, I became the **first Spanish elected member of the Royal Institute of Painters in Water Colours (London)**, and was awarded a prize by the **American Watercolor Society (New York)**, two of the most respected institutions in watercolor worldwide.

My work has been recognized with more than **20 international awards**, and my artistic vision continues to evolve — always with the same purpose: to paint with honesty, intention, and soul.
