Unlike so many art instructors who seem to race through a painting, leading their students to believe that finishing fast is the goal... Broderick teaches at a realistic, relaxed pace. Having taken his first two courses, and now working through Landscapes, I know how to make a good painting happen, and if something doesn't turn out quite right I know why. I highly recommend all three of Broderick's courses if you are serious about learning how to paint with water. ~ Linda Krueger

Why I created this course
Landscapes were something I dreamt of mastering among many other subjects—but as a beginner, it felt extremely overwhelming.
The trees, the sky, the composition... it was all a blur. I bounced between tutorials, hoping for clarity, but mostly just felt stuck.
What finally made a difference was learning the right skills in the right order—without drowning in theory or long lectures. That’s when painting became joyful. I could see real progress and finally trust myself.
That’s exactly why I created this course: to guide you step-by-step, build your confidence while having fun, so you can fall in love with landscape painting—minus the overwhelm.

What students have said:
This process will work for you too
"This is the third course offered by Broderick that I have taken and, once again, I am happy with my decision to take his course. I also found it's easier to practice basic watercolor techniques on this style of paintings, and I can more easily produce a much fresher and cleaner look for my paintings as well. What a great course!!"
Alice Peng
"I'm a big fan of Broderick's teaching style, so this is already my third course with him! :) I like how the course teaches you to "see" like an artist and makes it easy to paint landscapes step-by-step. This class teaches new ways to apply the techniques we covered in the first two courses, so it's a great way to keep practicing and learning new skills!"
Viktoriya Kurganska
“Already in the first few videos he makes things look so easy when it comes to knowing where to start, especially when looking at a busy landscape. I’m excited to start looking for landscapes to paint, knowing that it will be much more approachable and enjoyable with his simplified and intuitive process in mind. Thanks for another excellent course B! Watching it is as much fun as painting!!”
