Colors of Hope - Artwork and story by Ruhi

I wish to join the Watercolor Academy because it's not just a place to learn but a community where art breathes. I want to improve my techniques, understand professional color theory, and most importantly — connect with artists who share this beautiful language of colors.

The Silence of the Sunset

I believe that I could perfect my painting skills if I were to win the prize because the Watercolor Academy Study Program is perfectly designed, from initiation to performance, according to someone who wants to master the art of watercolor painting.

Rising Through Colors - Watercolours and story by Dipto Dev Nath

I've followed Watercolor Academy's work for a while now and I deeply respect its philosophy of guiding emerging artists with solid, foundational knowledge and emotional insight.

Colors of My Soul: Journey in Watercolor. Story by Temba Ntiti

What I long to master in watercolor is control over translucency and depth. I want to learn how to let my paintings breathe, capturing not just the form but the soul of my subjects. The Watercolor Academy offers the structured guidance I need to enhance my skills and build confidence in my work. From understanding color harmony to mastering composition, I believe this course would be a transformative experience for me.

King Rama IX wears a barrister's suit - Watercolour and story by Mr. Nattawut Kreangkraileard

This picture lives in my memory as a Thai citizen who is fond of the study of law and has deep faith in King Rama IX. This work offers a fresh perspective by employing bright watercolors to portray important Thai figure (Former Thai King) , in contrast to the traditional, colorless, and formal approach commonly used for such subjects.

Learning with Watercolor Academy

I turned to shades and contrast - Story and artwork by Elaine Ethier

I've always been drawn to all forms of art, wondering how artists could transfer lovely colours, textures, warmth, light and shade. Sculptures, how the shapes transmit shades. I refer to Light as the most mix of colours, moody whites and all ranges have troubled my sight so I turned to shades and contrast.
