Watercolour tutorials on Renee’s Studio

We’re super excited to announce the launch of Renee’s Studio - my own iOS app for all my watercolour tutorials.

Perfect for your iPad or iPhone, there are over 50 tutorials there already and I’m adding new content every week.

You know I love to paint everything, so there’s a whole range of subjects - landscapes, buildings, seascapes, animals and more. There’s a range of difficulty levels from basic skills lessons right through to fine art style paintings. It’s all beautifully laid out and you can filter the content to easily find a tutorial or add something to you favourites to watch later.

David, my genius husband, did all the programming and patiently added all the features I asked for. I’m over the moon to have a dedicated space to feature all my favourite tutorials.

To get you started there are 2 free tutorials, including the pretty ermita in a field of summer flowers, shown in first slide in the photo above. Once you’ve subscribed you’ll have access to all the videos, step-by-steps, challenges and a large number of articles answering common questions.

Available for iPad, iPhone and newer Macs. Find it here … www.walden.co.nz/studio
