“It’s been a great pleasure testing out your new courses and brushes and I’m very honoured to have done so. This course has been very enjoyable and I have learned some new skills as well as some new subjects that I would not normally choose. The modules are well designed and come with templates that you can use to follow along with her or go with your own knowledge but I think it’s best to follow along and then perhaps go with your own ideas. Kris guides you through each module with ease and great advice, most definitely recommend for anyone who wishes to expand their drawing skills.”

“An amazing course with a great variety of subjects. Beautiful colorful and very detailed divided into small chunks. Many different techniques are used so there is something for everyone suitable for the beginner but also for the more advanced. The sketches that are used in the lessons are given but if you like a challenge then you could also draw the line drawings yourself.”

“This course has a lot of content and Kris does a great job of explaining everything in detail. She manages to explain complicated-looking techniques in a simple way. The way the modules are structured from easy to more difficult allows the artist to notice their progress. The designs are beautifully created as usual by Kris and I can only recommend this course to anyone who likes to draw digitally or would like to learn.”

I was astounded at the results I was able to achieve in this course. The Wet Build & Blend brush that is included in the set is so versatile and has become a favorite of mine. Kris gives wonderful insight into the reason for the steps of the process which really helps students create beautiful art. It is Kris's encouragement and perfectly timed reminders that are the secret components to delivering superior instruction to her students.”

Q. What tools will I need to do this course?
A. In class, I will only be demonstrating using Procreate. If you want to follow along with me, you’ll need a pressure sensitive iPad, the Procreate App (v. 5.2.5 or newer), and a pressure sensitive stylus (Apple Pencil). This course can be completed in other drawing programs like Photoshop, Fresco, etc. or you may also use traditional tools, a pen or pencil and watercolor paint if you feel comfortable, but there will be no instruction on how to use any other programs or traditional painting methods.
Q. Are there any special brushes I’ll need?
A. For Procreate, Photoshop & Affinity users, all of the digital brushes you’ll need are included in the course. If you’re using a different software, then you’ll need to use your own brushes. These are not physical brushes, but digital brushes that are made for software programs.
Q. I’m a beginner, is this for me?
A. Yup, I know you can do it! It’s great if you have a very basic knowledge of Procreate, but I’ve walked through everything step-by-step with beginners in mind. If you don’t feel prepared, you can take my FREE Procreate for Beginners class alongside this course.
Q. Do you offer any money back guarantee?
A. Sure do! If you finish the whole course and feel you haven’t gained any benefit or learned anything then email me within 30 days of purchase for a full refund. Please note that it must be within the 30 days and the whole course must be completed, no exceptions.

The Watercolor Painting Academy is a beautiful course and Kris is such thorough, kind, and uplifting teacher to learn from! I was nervous about my tech skills and art abilities and by doing this class I now don’t hesitate to whip out my iPad and create. I have gone on to do more of Kris’s adorable classes and love each them
This course that Kris shared with us is one of my most favorite Procreate courses I’ve taken over the years. I am so proud of each of the projects I completed and I learned so much! My confidence really grew throughout this course with Kris’s style of teaching. Thanks Kris, you’re the best!!!
Don’t know about you but I have struggled with traditional watercolours over the years. If you feel the same then please don’t think as I did that digital watercolour would be a struggle too. With this course it is definitely not a struggle! Go for it!
I enjoyed every relaxing minute of this delightful course! I don’t struggle with watercolor anymore after taking this course. Each lesson is very easy to follow. I love the brushes and other tools that come with the course as well. Many thanks to Kris for creating this wonderful course!
Absolutely amazing course! Кris is an incredible teacher who explains everything so clearly and makes the learning process really enjoyable. Even though the course covers quite advanced techniques, it’s presented in such an accessible way that even complete beginners can follow along with confidence. I highly recommend it!
I also own seven of her courses and six packs of graphics and tools, and every single one is exceptionally professional and crafted with great attention to even the smallest details. Honestly, you can’t go wrong with anything she creates, everything she offers is truly a must-have!
