A Watercolor Painting Book for Beginners: Watercolor Made Simple Workbook

Your Stress-Free Way to Start Painting

Big news, friends, I’ve been keeping a secret, and I can finally share it! ✨

I’m thrilled to announce my second book: Watercolor Made Simple Workbook!

I’ve had a few “pinch me” moments over the years, but the biggest has to be when I got my first book deal. I’m a huge fan of books, often preferring them over tech any day. So when I was offered the chance to work with Quarto again to write, illustrate, and create a watercolor technique workbook, I couldn’t reply “YESSSS!!!” fast enough.

I poured my heart into this second book, and I couldn’t be more proud to finally share it with you.

Why This Workbook is Special

Here’s what makes this workbook truly different: it comes with 20 pre-printed line drawings on premium watercolor paper.

This means:

  • No sketching or transferring designs—you can open the book and start painting immediately.

  • Watercolor paper ensures your paints blend beautifully, giving you that satisfying watercolor experience right away.

  • Step-by-step instructions and video tutorials guide you through essential techniques like blending, layering, and brushwork.

Imagine turning the page and picking up your brush, without worrying about supplies, sketches, or blank pages. That’s exactly what I wanted this workbook to do: make painting easy, fun, and stress-free. That was my main goal for this book, to make it as easy as possible to just start.

Who Watercolor Made Simple Workbook is For

This workbook was made for anyone who has ever:

  • Stared at a blank page wondering where to start.

  • Felt intimidated by watercolor or thought, “I’m not creative enough.”

  • Wanted a joyful, stress-free hobby that fits into busy life.

It’s especially for you—my creative community—who have shared your passion, support, and time with me over the years. Every class you’ve joined, every project you’ve painted with me, and every time you’ve picked up a brush has been part of this journey. This workbook is my “thank you” for being here. 💛

This is about building confidence and joy, not perfection. Each project gives you a chance to create something beautiful, feel proud, and enjoy your time with watercolor.
