Relaxing, creative Zoom sessions—perfect for adults of all skill levels!
“Taking a class with Victoria is like entering a new world of noticing color and detail. You will linger in the reds, yellows, and oranges of an apple, or see how shadows create the shape of flower petals. Step-by-step, Victoria will take you from drawing with pencil on paper to creating amazing mixes of colors that celebrate the natural world. Victoria takes away the fear some may feel about watercolor, and you’ll leave each session feeling both more energized and more at peace.”
-Natalie Z.
“Victoria’s classes are so calming. I didn’t think I could paint, but now I feel confident every week!”

“A perfect mix of instruction and encouragement. Great for beginners and up.”
— Diana C.

Reviews From My Students
“Victoria is wonderful! I’ve been taking her group and private lessons for over one and a half years. Victoria is a very patient and knowledgeable instructor. She explains and shows us the basics of watercolor- blending, color, brush work, highlights, shadows, and she is excellent at critiquing work, if you want. She is flexible to accommodate schedules for private lessons. She also paints beautifully!!! SIGN UP FOR A CLASS. ITS FUN!!!”
“Victoria Elizabeth is AWESOME!! I am currently one of her students, taking watercolor classes with her. She is so kind and VERY patient as a teacher and artist, and she NEVER makes you feel like you’re making any kind of mistakes. And if you do, she patiently teaches you how to correct them, and puts you at ease if you feel you are making too many of them. I highly recommend Victoria as your painting teacher. She’s just wonderful. I give her 5 stars!”
“Victoria’s classes are relaxed and easy to follow for all levels, even on zoom. While guiding us in completing a frame worthy painting every two to three weeks, she teaches new painting techniques and ways to correct mistakes.
Classes are so convenient! When I missed a week, Victoria sent a recording of the group session allowing me to catch up. I appreciate her kind, helpful suggestions on ways to improve my work and highly recommend Victoria’s classes!!”
“About two months ago I noticed Victoria Elizabeth’s watercolor classes on NextDoor. My daughters and I wanted to do something creative and to take a break from our everyday lifestyle to relax.
Victoria offers watercolor classes to people with all kinds of experience. Beginners like us or individuals that have experience and want to learn more. Victoria’s patience and experience has been amazing.
She makes everyone feel comfortable with their skills and talent level and paces the class to meet individual needs. In addition, she will review your art and provide suggestions or answer any questions.
The classes are very flexible, affordable and Victoria provides recordings should we miss a class and need to get caught up or finish a piece. Victoria’s classes are fun and we look forward to them every week. We would highly recommend
Victoria to anyone who wants to learn watercolor painting from a talented artist in a relaxed, caring virtual environment.”
“I want to express my gratitude to Victoria. She shares so many inspiring techniques, examples, caring step by step instruction, information and everything possible to successfully create watercolor paintings.
Thank you for keeping our watercolor class alive during this very hard time. I was very impressed how quickly Victoria adapted to the online class world.
Although Zoom technology may seem like an unnatural place to conduct multi student, with varying skill levels, watercolor painting classes. The transition from in-person to online was seamless, due wholly to Victoria’s personality, and passion.
Five plus star rating!”
