World Watercolour Month Artist Ambassador
I'm delighted to be an Artist Ambassador for 2023’s World Watercolor Month! Organised by Doodlewash, this month-long celebration of watercolor encourages people to try this wonderful medium and make creativity part of their daily routine.
World Watercolor Month also helps nurture children’s creativity by donating proceeds to the International Child Art Foundation. Until July 31st, I’ll be giving 10% of proceeds from all sales of courses to the International Child Art Foundation.
You can join in World Watercolor Month by creating your own watercolour art during July! Try a mini painting a day, or work on something larger each week- it’s up to you! You could try a new technique each day, split a sheet of paper into tiny squares and paint one a day or add a new element a day to create a larger picture over the month.
Need inspiration? Use the World Watercolor Month prompts below to give you ideas, scroll down to read my World Watercolour Month tutorials or sign up for a class like Painting Vibrant Watercolor Coastlines or Travel Sketching In The Wild (10% from each course sold until the end of July will be donated to the International Child Art Foundation).
All levels of artist are encouraged to join in (even if you’ve never picked up a brush before) and you can use other media along with your watercolours. It’s all about learning and having fun!
Share your work on social media with the hashtags #WorldWatercolorMonth and #WorldWatercolorMonth2023, and don't forget to tag me @AndreaEnglandArt if you use one of my tutorials- I’d love to see what you create!
