There’s Always Something New to Discover
Some days you may want to understand a technique more deeply. Other days, you simply want to pick up your brush, enjoy the colors and make something beautiful.
That’s what I hope these courses give you.
Behind the brush
Hi, I'm Katerina.
I'm a professional watercolor illustrator and the artist behind AkvarellDesign. For more than a decade, I've created watercolor illustrations for clients around the world — and developed my own approach to painting with light, clean form, transparency and depth.
​
When I teach, I don't want you to simply watch where I put my brush. I want you to understand why I make each choice — so you can stop guessing and know what to do next.
That's the approach I bring to every course I create.

A note from me
There Is No One Right Way to Paint
Watercolor has been part of my life for many years, and I’m still discovering something new each time I pick up a brush.
I hope these courses give you more than a finished painting. I hope they help you understand your materials, trust your own decisions, and gradually find a way of painting that feels like yours.
Wherever you are in that process, I’d be very happy to paint alongside you.
With love,
Katerina
