NATURE'S DRAMA - ALREADY STAGED FOR YOU
Paint the kind of wild, rushing scene you can practically hear
for painters READY FOR SOME NOISE ON THE PAGE
Some scenes whisper.
Some roar.
Let's paint them all.
From thundering drama to hidden, glowing cascades, we'll capture the mist catching the light, and the sheer power of something moving too fast to freeze... except in paint.

Sketchbook Success
Let's test the waters 😉
We'll fill a sketchbook page with four tiny versions of the same simple waterfall - each one trying a different way to capture that tricky white water.
(No masking fluid in sight!🙌)
By the time we start the painting projects, you won't be guessing how to handle the white water - you'll already know which technique feels right for you.
Create Drama With Contrast
Believe it or not, the waterfall is NOT the most important part of the scene.
It's what you put around the waterfall that matters.
Drama comes from contrast.
We'll use loose, blocky almost abstract shapes - the sort of marks that barely make sense up close, but pull the scene into focus from a distance giving that white water a chance to shine.
Paint a Whole Series
We'll paint together, step by step to create two different paintings. Aside from the video you'll also have the line drawings and references so that you are guided all the way.
But there is no need to stop there!
Armed with these new techniques AND a library of carefully selected reference images, you'll be itching to create a whole series of your own waterfall paintings.
WATERFALLS IN WATERCOLOUR
Lush tropical pools.
Water crashing on rocks and descending to a misty haze.
That wild, powerful feeling of nature mid performance.
Let's paint that energy, one bold contrast at a time.
We'll begin with...
four tiny waterfalls in our sketchbooks. 💧
A playful, low-pressure project that lets you test-drive different ways to handle white water, so that you're ready to confidently paint waterfalls with the approach that suits YOU best. 🖊️✍️
next, a QUICK project...
where you'll discover just how much drama a few bold, dark shapes can create in almost no time at all. Quick enough for an afternoon, dramatic enough to stop you in your tracks. ⏰
Bring everything together...
in the main painting. A lush, tropical waterfall scene, with a walkway winding you right into the picture. Paint it bright and tropical, or shift the palette to something moodier and muted - entirely up to you.
We'll bring every technique together - the white water, the colour, the contrast, right down to the dark shapes that make your water glow. 🌿
that's not all!...
Real time step by step video, line drawings, references and a curated library to inspire your own series - everything you need is here.
Ready to feel the rush?
Let's go chasing waterfalls.

Frequently Asked Questions
What supplies do I need?
I always recommend that you use what you already have. There is no need to use exactly the same supplies or colours as I am using.
I always include details of exactly what I use in each lesson but the broad basics include:
🎨 300gsm cold pressed watercolour paper either loose sheets, pads or sketchbooks - whatever you like best or have to hand
🎨 a large round watercolour brush, and possibly a rigger (although even that is very much optional)
🎨 watercolour paints
🎨 a sketchbook or just loose sheets of copier paper and a pencil for sketching
How long do I have access to the course materials?
If you purchase the Standalone Edition you will have instant and ongoing access to the materials in your single purchased course.
If you purchase the membership you will have instant access to not only this course but also to the entire growing library of Happy Painters Hub courses.
Your access to all of these courses will continue for as long as you choose to pay your low monthly membership subscription.
How does the membership pricing work?
If you subscribe to the membership, you will automatically be charged on a monthly basis. The membership fee is very low at the moment because the Hub is still relatively new. Over time, more and more content will be added so it is likely that the fee will increase in future enrolment periods.
However, when the subscription fee increases, existing members will continue to pay the low fee they originally signed up for.
That means you never have to worry about the subscription fee increasing for as long as you are a continuing member.
Don’t worry - that doesn’t mean you are stuck with me forever, cancelling or changing your billing details is easy. You can do it all yourself!
How would I cancel the membership?
Just click on Your Account from your student dashboard and you can easily edit your credit card details or cancel your subscription with a couple of clicks.
