TESTIMONIALS
What my students say about me:
Meggan
“Taking Kristine's watercolor class was such a fun experience. Her warm, encouraging teaching style made learning enjoyable, and she not only taught us watercolor techniques but also helped us understand the value of quality paints and paper; the extra time she spent showing me how to adjust my brush strokes gave me the confidence to create a painting I never thought I could achieve. Highly recommend!”

Sandra
“You have taught me not to panic, just keep working, adding another layer, or maybe some highlights with other media. And then it turns out to be beautiful. I am also becoming more confident in creating by adding my own touches and colors. My own style is developing.”

Megan
“I could hear your words in my head. I thought I tanked it but then kept adding the layers and it really came to life! I have so much FOMO that I’m really enjoying “cheating”, using your sketches to focus, and improving my painting skills."

MY PHILOSOPHY:
"Watercolor is just the beginning; we are not chasing perfection, we are building confidence."
MEET YOUR INSTRUCTOR
Hi, I'm Kristine
I'm the artist behind fluffypigeon_art: a little corner of the internet full of loose watercolor florals, mixed media doodles, and quiet studio moments. I paint from a family of creators, and I've always found my way back to making things by hand.
In high school I lived in the music and theater rooms. I studied elementary education in college, and today I get to wear two of my favorite hats: teacher and artist. Watercolor found me during the pandemic. I'm entirely self-taught, and that path is exactly what shapes how I teach - one honest layer at a time.
My work lives at the meeting point of watercolor and mixed media, and my whole approach is about making art feel accessible. I want you to feel safe experimenting, to see the good and the awkward in your paintings, and to keep going anyway.
In my course I will teach you paint loose watercolor florals, gain confidence and enjoy the process along the way.
