I’m Mary — artist, educator, and watercolor guide 🎨

I help beginners build confidence and enjoy watercolor through simple how-to guides, beginner resources, and creative prompts — one step at a time.

I started painting in 2020 with no art background, just a brush and a lot of curiosity. Now I help new artists feel comfortable, supported, and excited to begin.

If you’ve ever thought, “I’d love to try watercolor, but I don’t know where to start,” you’re in the right place.
