"When something went right, I knew why and to continue to do it. When it didn't work out, I knew how to fix it.
That was a powerful eureka moment. My paintings became deliberate, not a fluke." ~ Rosie Brown

Meet Broderick Wong

An award-winning watercolorist who once quit the medium in frustration
and came back with a system that took all the guesswork out.

In 2009, Broderick left a career as a corporate trainer to pursue art full-time, dedicating hours into multimedia design, animation, and graphite portraiture before finding his true calling.

In 2015, he discovered watercolors. Like most beginners, he found the medium completely unpredictable and frustrating, leading him to quit watercolor. A year later, he gave it another go, with the intent to learn it properly. He spent the next 4 years of trial and error until he achieved a breakthrough.

After refining his approach and attending 5 master workshops, he led live workshops, placed first in the Masters category at the 2019 Grand Prix Plein Air in Steveston, was the featured artist for a major art supply chain, and represented Canada at Italy’s prestigious Fabriano in Acquarello exhibition, where his painting was juried into their permanent museum collection.

Since 2020 Broderick has been serving the global watercolor community through his online courses helping one student at a time, take the pressure out of watercolor, and paint with joy and total clarity.

It's Working For Them
It Will Work For You Too

From Guesswork To Understanding

Rosie tried books and tutorials, but nothing clicked until she learned this system to create beautiful results in only 3 months ⤵

"I like that the course answers how & why,
not just what."

Your 3 Strengths is simple and so easy to follow. I’ve always had a hard time figuring out the water to paint ratio. I really enjoyed the course and I’m kinda sad it’s done.”

Marianette Cheu

"You got me to the point where I thought,
I can do this."

"I can't believe I did that. You got me to the point where I thought, I can do this. I'm so happy when I look at my painting. As a student, it wasn't such a big painting that you got lost. You know you can be successful, and that makes you feel like you can do this and then the next one."

Ann Watman

"It gives me confidence to know when I’m doing something right."

"It gives me confidence to understand when I’m doing something right or when I’m doing something wrong. So many artists on Youtube just let you watch them paint without explaining what they are doing or why. One advantage of Broderick's classes is he sneaks in 10 repetitions into 1 "exercise"."

Real stories of control and effortless painting

I was honestly ready to give up on watercolor. When I saw that your course offered a solid technical foundation and step-by-step projects, I thought, "Okay, one last try." I'm so glad I did.

your explanation & close videos have finally let me understand what I was missing/doing wrong. THANK YOU Broderick… I am NOT affiliated.

It's exactly what I was looking for. The instructor is very clear with his instructions. I highly recommend this course.
— Christine Fung
I've learned more in the first few lessons than I have with anything else I've paid to take online!

“Holy Guacamole! In ALL the watercolor courses I've taken so far (did I mention I've taken a LOT of them?) NO ONE has shown me this process. All the teachers assume we know this going in. I did that and the exercise was brain-dead easy! This technique is worth the cost of the course. (Should I stop now?)"


John Orban

“I've taken so many on-line courses, watched YouTube videos, followed artists on Patreon and gone to in-person classes and retreats. No one ever taught me the lessons in Module 3, a total game changer! I was skeptical at first but I'm so glad I signed up for it. It completely changed the quality of my painting.”
