Course Curriculum
Hi, I’m Jim!
Hi, I'm Jim and I'm passionate about watercolors! I've been teaching watercolor for over 30 years. My students have been as young as elementary age to over 90! I teach classes in my Mansfield, TX studio every week. Although I'm internationally known and have won several awards and competitions with my paintings, being in the studio inspiring my students is my favorite thing to do. I've taught many workshops across the United States and almost every year I take a group of students to Europe and we have an absolute blast painting Plein Air. I truly believe that watercolor is amazing and that I can teach anyone to paint.
