Watercolor Courses by Chris V.

CREATING IN COLLECTIONS CAN REVOLUTIONIZE YOUR WORK!

AND IT’S EASIER THAN YOU MIGHT THINK…

“For someone who really needs structure I absolutely LOVED Chris’ course. I highly suggest it to anyone struggling with collection creation. Watch all the course once all the way through and then go back and put it to use to create your collection! I’m so excited about creating now, and feel much less pressure to have it all figured out!”

ARE YOU STRUGGLING TO GET NOTICED AS A CREATIVE?

  • You share your art on social media but you don’t get much response.

  • You don’t feel confident about the direction of your artwork.

  • You struggle to identify your unique style.

  • You join creative contests, in hopes your art will win or at least get noticed, but it’s not working.

  • You’ve pitched your work to art directors, art agents, and licensing companies with no luck.

  • You tag influencers on social media hoping they’ll love your creative style but you get crickets.

  • How to brand yourself is still a mystery.

But all I needed was a new way to create.

 

DON’T GIVE UP!!! COLLECTIONS CAN CHANGE EVERYTHING!

WHAT ARE COLLECTIONS?

Have you ever seen lovely sets of two-piece of tea towels that go together, but the art on them is different?

Or a four-piece set of dishes with a similar floral or nature theme?

How about a set of stationary with a planner, notebook, bookmark, pen, etc. in similar colors, but the design on each piece is unique?

 

There are lots of examples of this concept which we call collections.

I find them so delightful because they have the element of surprise.

Each piece has its own twist and keeps our eye happily moving from one element to another.

And they somehow all work together!

WHY CREATE IN COLLECTIONS?

  • It will give you an understanding about the industry you never had before.

  • Art directors, Art agents, and licensing companies are looking for artists that can create collections.

  • It can build your confidence as an artist.

  • It can super charge your studio process!

Creating collections can be challenging, and yet this is so important to artists and designers.

 

Don't get me wrong, individual art pieces are amazing.

 

However, knowing how to successfully create a collection will make you ready for so many different opportunities!

WHAT ARE STUDENTS SAYING ABOUT LEARNING WITH ME?

ELISABETTA FURCHT

 

Chris was a life-altering teacher for me. I took quite a few classes from her Skillshare portfolio, constantly gaining confidence and skills. Her relaxed, demystifying approach made me feel I could become an artist myself. She was an inspiration for me when publishing my first class.

FANNY HH

Chris makes it so easy to learn. Watercolors are like second nature to her and she has a way of simplifying so many processes. Plus she is so kind and patient. I highly recommend her classes!

MARIANNA B.

I was enjoying the ‘live painting’ session so much! I also wanted to thank you because I think it’s such a nice idea to make painting sessions like these, where I from Italy can watch you painting in Las Vegas. Feeling connected with such a beautiful passion is so much more than just a painting session. Go on spreading art everywhere.
