Your Weekly Studio Class: Realtime watercolor still-life with Pears!

Описание: Weekly Livestream with Rusty Nelson

February 25, 2026 - Livestream

Watercolor still life live demo - Pears

Hi everyone, this is a mid-week watercolor demo because I didn't have time this week to do a full-blown edited version. Plus, I wanted to redeem myself over the bad audio in the livestream on Monday. Painting fast, still-life scenes is a great way to build watercolor skills and confidence. Give it a go and have fun!

Join Rusty Nelson—Your College Art Professor—for a weekly livestream just for Patreon members! With over 28 years of experience teaching art in higher education, Rusty offers helpful insights, honest feedback, and a few laughs along the way.

🗓 When: Monday's at 2:00 PM (CST)

What to Expect:

Live Q&A on drawing, watercolor, and creative techniques

Personalized tips to support your art journey

A relaxed, fun, and supportive art classroom vibe.
