You don't need 'talent' to do what you see here. You need to practice using a method you can trust. It's quicker and easier than you think.
Hi, I'm Anna. I’m a watercolour artist & online tutor specialising in nature-inspired realism. I'm honoured to have taught tens of thousands of people to paint the way they’ve always wanted to.
Painting is central to my life now, but I spent years in the creative wilderness and know how frustrating it can feel to try to make time to develop a skill like painting and to move beyond self-doubt. That is why my work, and this website, is dedicated to supporting you to access your artistic self.
You can experience my clear, simple watercolor method for yourself by taking the free full-length video class or exploring my blog for other helpful resources. If you’re ready for more, my online School offers top-quality video lessons; we now have over 5000 members from over 100 countries painting their way to a more creative life.

“Anna’s school helped me take my painting to the next level!”
“I used to get so frustrated with my painting because the end result just wasn’t what I envisioned. But now, learning from Anna has shifted has changed my mental state and the way I approach my paintings! The satisfaction I now get when I complete a painting and am happy enough to hang it on my wall… THAT is rewarding!”

"I have learned more in the first tutorial than I learned in the 6-week class I took at the local college. Anna and her tutorials are the best out there!"
"I just retired and wanted to take up watercolor as a hobby. I am so lucky to have found Anna and her tutorials.
I term my painting as Zen Painting because after listening to the lesson, I am able to enter into a Zen state of mine when painting. My mind is not analyzing what I am doing, instead I am painting from a calm and peacefulness state, applying what the lessons had taught me.
It is not only very relaxing but then when I look at what I have painted I am WOW’d. Thank you Anna for sharing you knowledge and skills."
-Margie LeRoux
"Having now got to know her as a person, Anna's guidance and determination to encourage every level of ‘artist’ reflects her kind, gentle and caring personality perfectly."
"Anna has given me SO much confidence. Her ‘method’ is infallible and I no longer ever feel the need to ‘start again’ if something goes wrong, as it can always be rectified by the addition of more layers, tones and contrasts. That is what I like best with this process.
Most of all Anna’s teaching is incredibly clear and inspiring. It is so easy to follow and repeat over and over again."
-Stella Baker
