Watercolors capture the sweet nostalgia of life’s best moments
Watercolor painting is an invitation to play, to create, to reflect, and to experience. Like life, the medium is spontaneous yet intentional. Clear lines overlap soft layers, and colors flow and blend like water or music. Watercolors can call to mind a specific memory or set our creativity free.
Artist Sharon Larson shares the joy of watercolors through original paintings, commissioned portraits, online watercolor classes, and watercolor tutorials. From her childhood on a Wisconsin dairy farm to her family farm in Long Grove, Iowa, Sharon draws inspiration from the sweet nostalgia of Midwestern buildings and terrain. She brings emotion to each brushstroke, creating original pieces that embody a simple sense of happiness, generously shared. Sharon Larson gently guides participants in her online watercolor painting classes as they tap into their creativity and explore color, shape, and emotion. She encourages curiosity and joy through painting tutorials, each with an infusion of wisdom and perspective that extend far beyond the easel.
