It's World Watercolor Month Come celebrate with me with a GIVEAWAY!
July is one of my favourite months as an artist and if you're new to watercolor or just getting back to it, it might become one of yours too.
Every year, the watercolor community comes together to celebrate World Watercolor Month artists around the world picking up their brushes, painting daily, sharing their work, and reminding each other that creativity is worth making space for.
That energy fills me up every single time. And this year, I get to celebrate it with something extra special.
My publisher, Quarto, and I have put together a giveaway tied to the Watercolor Made Simple Workbook — and all it takes to enter is two steps and a few minutes of your time.
First, a little bit about the Watercolor Made Simple Workbook
Watercolor Made Simple Workbook was created for anyone who wants watercolor to feel less intimidating and more inviting. Inside, you'll find simple techniques, guided projects, and gentle prompts designed to help you practice one brushstroke at a time no experience required, no pressure, just paint. The best part is, you can paint directly inside the book!
Here's how the giveaway works
If our community reaches 250 Amazon reviews by July 31st, Quarto will randomly select 10 winners, each receiving a signed copy of the Workbook.
And if we reach 500 reviews? The prizes get even better.
Two additional lucky winners will each receive:
A signed copy of the Watercolor Made Simple Workbook
My signature 5-piece brush set
A custom palette from Deep Deep Lights Watercolors!
An additional lucky winner will receive a watercolor palette courtesy of Deep Deep Lights Watercolors too!
That’s 13 prizes in total!
The goal is to reach 500 reviews!
Why reviews matter more than you might think
Reviews are one of the most powerful ways a book finds new readers.
When someone searches for watercolor resources online, reviews help the Workbook show up. They help someone who has been sitting on the fence finally decide to take the leap.
That has always been the heart of Watercolor Made Simple meeting artists right where they are and helping them begin.
Whether you leave two sentences or two paragraphs, every review makes a real difference. And if this Workbook has helped you paint more consistently, feel more confident, or simply enjoy making art a little more sharing that experience is one of the kindest things you can do for another artist who is just getting started.

That's it. Two steps, a few minutes, and you're in!
Open to residents of the United States and Canada only.
This is the kind of thing that only happens when a community shows up together and ours is one of the best I know.
Thank you, genuinely, for being here. For painting alongside me. And for helping this book find its way to more artists who are ready to begin.
Let's make it a July to remember. 🎨
With gratitude,
Nicki
