Exploring the Zorn Palette for Watercolour Painting

Explore the expressive possibilities of a limited palette inspired by the renowned Zorn Palette approach. This unique, engaging course teaches how to use a famous limited palette called the Zorn Palette. Most often used for acrylic and oil painting, and rarely taught in watercolour, this palette translates beautifully to watercolour with a few simple adaptations. This palette is also most often used for acrylic and oil portraits, but it lends gorgeous results to floral and watercolour paintings as well, especially when painting warm scenes and fall themes. Through guided exercises, you’ll learn all about the palette and colours, and how to use them effectively in your work. This course includes readings, photos and videos, plus access to the Watercolour Your World community to support your learning. Why take my courses? As a long time watercolourist, trained artist and adult educator, my courses are designed with best practices in adult education in mind. Adults learn by doing, relating what we are learning to what we already know, and by talking about what we are learning. Most online courses only give you content to watch, and that is why you can watch a million painting videos and still feel like you can't paint. My courses are designed to help you actually learn and bring new skills and techniques into your painting practice.
