– No subscription. Buy once, revisit years later. I’ve gone back to basic color theory modules more times than I’d like to admit.

Would I recommend it? Just remember: a course can show you the brushstroke, but only your own practice makes it art.

– Some courses cram 40 hours of repetitive exercises. Others promise “master watercolor in 2 hours” and skip essential things like paper types or brush care. Read the curriculum carefully.
