Hi! I’m Nat Martin, a watercolor artist from Victoria, Australia. I’ve been captivated by this medium for as long as I can remember and there’s nothing more rewarding than helping someone explore or reconnect with their creative side.Â
This professionally filmed course, The Magic of Color Mixing follows on from Welcome to Watercolor and is for budding and established artists alike. In it, we’ll go deep into modern color theory and together, we’ll build up your skills and confidence so you too can create works bursting with life and begin to develop your own language with colour.
The course also covers why it’s important to understand color and how colour affects the mood, temperature and energy of your work. You’ll paint your own color mixing wheel, learn about color reference charts, how to create beautiful neutrals and earthy colors, AND, why you keep accidentally making brown (!)
Color is such a huge part of my own work, I love using vibrant, high energy watercolor and I’m so looking forward to seeing the magic you create with your finished piece. Â
If you'd like to use the materials I use in the course, I have put together a handy Colour Mixing Paint Kit. I also have a list of links to individual products in the Project and Resources section.
I have put together comprehensive course notes that you can download and review whenever you like.
To help you get into the painting mood I've also put together a fun Spotify playlist of songs I enjoy listening to while painting and get me in the right mindset.
