Happy accidents are similar to pieces of a puzzle:

They are like fragmented pieces of knowledge,
randomly applied hoping to see what "fits".

These fragments create knowledge gaps that create inconsistencies in your paintings.

The fastest way to close all gaps and unify your knowledge and skills, is by building a good foundation.

"It felt like taking 1 step forward then 4 steps back, until I discovered the steps that truly mattered."

I've tested and fine-tuned those steps into 1 complete learning system, making watercolor painting more predictable. It's simple enough for anyone to follow, and see great results very quickly.

But you need to start with the easy stuff first.

You will make meaningful progress and have fun learning as my lessons are designed to be simple yet intentional, very detailed but easy to follow.
