So I am doing a little art market research and I wanted to share it with all my blog readers. As you may know, I teach online watercolor classes at the Inspiration Place and I decided to let my students help me choose the next project. I posted five different project ideas and I asked them, what do you want to learn? The poll will be open through September 25th, 2014. Then I will start filming the most popular class choice. You can cast your vote too.

Watercolor Projects in the Lead
Right now, dragonflies and sunflowers are neck in neck in the popular vote with an even number of art enthusiasts voting for each. Which painting do you want to win? Here is a little more information about what I will be teaching in each watercolor course. If you are not a member yet of the Inspiration Place, membership is free.

Oh sunflowers–Van gogh saw beauty in this flower that resembles an overgrown dandelion and so will you. Sunflowers are a great intermediate project for someone with a little bit of experience in watercolor and wants to create something luminous and fantastic. If this project wins the popular vote, I will be teaching how to capture the light on petals, to mix gorgeous greens and create a mysterious and harmonious background. Like this sample sunflower painting? I just listed it as a fine art print in my etsy shop available in your choice of sizes. click HERE to discover how easy it is to own your own watercolor print. |

Dragonflies symbolize spirituality.Starting life out as an ugly beetle, the dragonfly metamorphose into another creature so they may soar to heavens. If this project wins the popular vote I will be teaching you how to draw the delicate dragonfly wings and explore advance techniques to create the swirls and texture in your watercolor paintings. Are you also an art collector? Take a peek at all the dragonfly art and accessories I have in my etsy shop. The dragonfly pendants are very popular right now as gifts to give ( and keep!) |
I'd love to do a peacock for my daughter but the dragonflies for me!
Me likey the sunflower. Very artistic and looks fresh to the eye. The painting is awesome 🙂
I enjoy the colorful butterfly that roams freely. I enjoy art but am terrible at drawing:)
I love the Peacock pictures. They are such beautiful animals. The colors are amazing. Thanks for sharing.
Mixed Media Sugar Skulls!! I love that–I'd like that one for myself. lol
Your peacock paintings are so lovely!
Love the sunflower one! Good job
I bet I can't do this. I suck at art but I love looking at these masterpieces. I love the peacocks.
That sunflower was definitely awesomely made. 🙂
LOVE the dragonfly and the peacock. You have an amazing gift. What beautiful pieces.
Wow you're an amazingly talented artist!
all of the art is impressive, the dragon fly caught my eye.
I don't like skulls sorry because they remind me of death, and that's scary. But the art is pretty colorful and I appreciate that. My favorite in this set would be the peacock. 🙂
The dandelions looks really nice. I wouldn't know which one to choose, they are all so nice.
Love the paintings. They all look so beautiful.
I love the peacock painting and the sunflower in waterpaint. You are so natural in painting.
Wow I'm torn between the dragonflies and the purple peacock. I love the colors and I'm just drawn to them
Debating between the peacock and the dragonfly! I like them both!
