The Experience

You’d love to learn watercolor painting (or pick it up again) but you’re not sure how to begin. Expert instructor Addie Stunkard will help you get started. Join Addie for a 90-minute live virtual workshop where you’ll learn the essentials of watercolors and practice your skills as you paint an especially relaxing subject: beautiful houseplants.

  • Before class, Addie will provide you with a list of materials and her own traceable foliage templates.
  • No previous art experience is necessary—you’ll learn a simple graphite transfer process to create outlines of the plants and pots, and Addie will walk you through fundamental watercolor techniques.
  • Once you’ve got the basics down, you’ll spend the rest of the class painting away, with Addie on hand to answer questions.

Class length: 90 minutes
We suggest: You should finish your masterpiece in 90 minutes, but you may want to leave time after class to put the finishing touches on your botanical beauties.

About

Growing up in a large family surrounded by music and art, Addie Stunkard always knew she wanted to be an artist. She studied watercolor painting and illustration at Oklahoma State and after a stint in marketing, she launched her graphic design business. Along with her design work, she shares her passion for art by teaching. "I feel like painting can be seen as such an intimidating concept," she says. "My goal is for someone who's never picked up a brush before to walk away with something beautiful."

For this class, you'll need: the printed houseplant template (included in link below), an 8-12 color watercolor palette, 140-lb watercolor cold-pressed paper, one large round and one small round brush, a pencil, paper towels, a cup of water, a hair dryer, a fine point pen, and a glass or plastic plate.

A fast and fun painting experience

It was helpful to have previous experience with colors, brushes, and painting, as it was easier to follow the artist's fast paced instructions.

Loved this class!

I love watercolor but had never taken a class before - this was a great introduction to basic techniques! The instructor was super kind, friendly, knowledgeable, and taught at a great pace; even in just 90 minutes, I learned a lot that will help me improve in future, and I was amazed by how well my painting came out. Well facilitated by both the instructor and the Uncommon Goods moderator. I also loved the paint set and brushes suggested with the class. Highly recommend!

Great class!

There wasn't enough time for me to finish this in class, but it was a lovely environment to start it and I felt like I had all the tools to finish it! Addie has great words to explain how she's approaching each bit!

So Fun, I Loved It.

The instructor, Addie Stunkard was fantastic. With her guidance, I was actually able to paint a picture! I also liked being able to interact with the other members of the class. I didn't realize how much I missed being creative. I look forward to my next Uncommon Experience.

Fun but not beginner

I bought this as a gift for my mom for Christmas. And even though she enjoyed it she said the instructor went very fast and used terms she was not familiar with. I think it would be better suited as an intermediate class versus a 101 class.

This class was so fun!

There was a lot of technique packed into the class and it flew by. Addie is a great instructor and in the moments she was concentrating Shanda and LaNessa kept things lively.

Loved it!

I bought this for fun because I enjoyed taking Addie's "Paint Your Pet" class, also on UG. I really like her teaching style. She's warm and welcoming, and teaches in a way that's easy to understand and follow. I particularly appreciate that she focuses a camera on her own painting while teaching since I'm a visual learner. The 1-1/2 hours flew by quickly! I found this class a bit trickier than Paint Your Pet, simply because the size of the images was smaller. Addie's tips were so helpful. For a newbie, I'm thrilled with my sweet little painting. I'm also pretty thrilled that I got lost in a happy little rabbit hole for the duration of class. It was the equivalent of a spa day for my mind. I'll gladly sign up for anything else Addie offers!

Exceeded my expectations

I really enjoyed that the instructor began the class with plenty of hands-on techniques. And I really enjoyed that I could see her work and her hands. It was the quickest 90 minutes and I felt it often moved too quickly, but really I am finding that I am slow as a beginner.

Class was a joke

I received this as a gift. The template was so tiny and difficult to use. I felt like it was a waste of money.

Response from merchant

We're sorry that you had trouble using some materials for the class! The templates that the instructor provides may need some adjusting when you print these from your computer. Choosing "fit to page width" during printing should resolve this. We're always available to offer support when needed, either before or during your class. Many of our customers share how much they love this and we want you to have that experience too! We're reaching out to see if you're interested in joining a new class.
