This week – Tuesday through Friday (January 21-23, 2026, with an Essential Techniques Day on January 20), we’re seeing up-close-and-personal presentations during Watercolor Live, an online art conference unlike any other.
We want to help you grow, become a better artist, learn new ideas and techniques, and give you some world-class painting instruction from international artists — all while introducing you to a community that will support you!
Watch Watercolor Live and interact with watercolor teachers such as Thomas W. Schaller, Kathleen S. Giles, Matthew White, Shelley Prior, and many more, hosted by Publisher Eric Rhoads and PleinAir Magazine and American Watercolor Weekly Editor-in-Chief Kelly Kane.


Imagine the incredible watercolors you will paint during this 3-day event! The skill level of our attendee’s dramatically increases over these few jam-packed days, and each ticket tier includes several replay options so you can watch the demos again and again (the entire online event will be recorded for you to replay any time until as late as January 23, 2027).
