Watercolor Mastery Workshop
"Manhattan Moments"
Perfect for Artists of Every Skill Level!
A One Day Live Virtual Workshop Event
With Professional Watercolor Artist and Instructor David J. Rogers
Scheduled for Sept. 6th, 2025 from 10:am to 2:00:pm PT
Here's what we'll be covering in this upcoming
Watercolor Mastery Workshop
"Manhattan Moments"
Step into the heartbeat of the city—captured in watercolor.
There’s something magical about a city street just after the rain. Reflections shimmer on the pavement, car lights blur in the mist, and life moves forward with a rhythm that’s uniquely urban. In “Manhattan Moments,” we’ll capture that energy in watercolor, blending atmosphere and motion into a scene that feels alive.
You’ll discover how to build depth and drama with soft-edged washes, create glowing reflections on wet pavement, and suggest movement without overworking detail. From the towering skyline in the distance to the simple gesture of figures crossing the street, this painting balances bold shapes with subtle nuance.
Whether you’ve always wanted to paint a rainy cityscape or you’re looking to strengthen your control of light, shadow, and atmosphere, this workshop will give you the tools and confidence to bring a dynamic scene to life. Imagine holding a brush and, with just a few well-placed strokes, transforming a blank page into the heart of Manhattan - complete with reflections, lights, and story.
Seats are limited, so don’t miss the chance to join us live. Enroll today and paint along with me in this unforgettable watercolor journey.
Perfect for All Levels of Artists!
This workshop is designed to welcome both beginning and experienced watercolorists. If you’re newer to watercolor painting, you’ll be guided through a clear and encouraging step-by-step process. If you’re more advanced, you’ll appreciate the nuanced instruction on layering, movement, and artistic expression.
You’ll paint along in real time, with direct guidance and live Q&A throughout the session. By the end of the day, you’ll have not only a finished painting, but a deeper understanding of the methods behind the process.
What You’ll Walk Away With...
By the end of this workshop, you won’t just have a finished painting - you’ll have a new set of watercolor skills you can use again and again. You’ll walk away with the ability to:
Create luminous reflections that make rainy streets come alive on paper
Simplify complex architecture into strong, confident shapes that read instantly
Use dramatic light and shadow to add mood and depth to any subject
Suggest figures in motion with ease, adding life and storytelling to your work
Capture the unique atmosphere of a rainy day scene that feels alive and authentic
Paint with a balance of looseness and control, giving your artwork a polished, professional finish
Interactive artist Q&A throughout the session
And so much more!
Then, we will apply everything we learn to a guided step-by-step demonstration of the painting shown above. As we go from step to step, we'll discuss the techniques and concepts we learned and how they directly relate to this painting. Since this will be a live, interactive, hands on experience, you'll have the opportunity to ask questions in real time and have them answered by the artist.
This one day event is going to help you to make a quantum leap in your watercolor painting abilities.
This is definitely a watercolor workshop you will not want to miss.
You could win one of these valuable prizes,
just for attending!
Cool Art Supplies! Future Workshops! Books and Courses! Original Artwork!
This will be our Watercolor Mastery Workshop Project Painting for this one day workshop event on Sept 6th, 2025:
"Manhattan Moments"
In every Watercolor Mastery Workshop, we cover techniques and methods that are directly related to the final step-by-step watercolor painting exercise, but more importantly, what you'll be learning can be applied to all of your future paintings.
Here's what is also included in this Watercolor Mastery Workshop...
Preliminary Basic Techniques Bonus Video:
Once you sign up, you'll receive a link to a 1 hour video that will walk you through everything you need to know about all of the materials and basic techniques we'll be using in the 1 day workshop on Sept 6th. If you are a beginner, you'll be able to familiarize yourself with all of the techniques, tools, and concepts at your own pace with guided practice exercises that you can access as many times as you like before the workshop. This basics video will allow us to dedicate the full 4 hours to the live workshop.
*Introduction to tools and materials and setting up your painting area.
*How to set up your palette.
*How to activate and mix paint on your palette.
*The three values used to paint any watercolor and how to create them.
*Introduction to various wash techniques.
*Glazing techniques that add luminosity to your work.
*Dropping in color for vibrant and energetic color mixing.
*How to use the dry-brush technique to add texture to your paintings.
High resolution digital reference downloads:
Finished painting reference download - You'll be able to use this high resolution image as a color reference guide and a map so you can see the direction we'll be heading with our finished painting.
Reference photographs - I'll show you how to use photographs as inspiration for paintings, and why a photograph is really only a "jumping off point" for your creative imagination.
A complete list of all the materials we'll be using in this workshop, and where to find them.
Your workshop registration will be far enough in advance of the event that you can purchase your art supplies (if you need them) in plenty of time. One of the coolest things about watercolor is that you don't need much to get started. Much of what you'll need (besides paint, paper, and brush) you already have right there at home.

This is a live virtual one day Watercolor Mastery Workshop event "Manhattan Moments" scheduled for Saturday September 6th, 2025, from 10:am to 2:pm Pacific time. An event appropriate for artists of all skill levels.
Unlike other watercolor workshops, this one will be from the comfort of your home, no need to fly to my gallery in California and rent a hotel room. It will be completely interactive and you can ask as many questions as you like and I can answer them for you personally.
This live one day event (four full hours of instruction) will be packed with tons of valuable information plus you will also receive a digital file of the entire event so you can re-watch the Watercolor Mastery Workshop at your own pace, as many times as you like, and we are throwing in some exclusive free bonuses just for attending.
Oh, btw... The price of this on-line event is much less than the price of a single live one-day workshop, how cool is that?
This virtual event will be similar to my live workshops here at the gallery, but packed with much more value, and they usually sell out within the first few days.
Every Watercolor Mastery Workshop is designed to give you a clear path to mastering the watercolor techniques I'll be teaching, meaning it will give you the confidence in your own abilities to be able to paint at your fullest potential as an artist.
You're going to get a lifetime of watercolor experience and knowledge boiled down into an easy to follow step-by-step, "learn by doing" plan of attack, so that you'll be able to learn much faster and will no longer have to waste your time trying to figure out the correct path.
Due to the Watercolor Mastery Workshop software, there are only a limited number of spots available - they won't last long. If you truly want to improve your watercolor painting skills, reserve your spot now! First come, first served!

Attn: All Watercolor Artists, (Your VIP invite)

Re: How to solve all of your watercolor painting problems with the right instructor so you can feel what it is like to paint at your fullest potential.
Did you know that most beginner watercolor artists trying to learn on their own or from paint-a-long YouTube videos are going to fail miserably due to practicing the wrong techniques or wrong methods?
Did you know that 99% of all watercolor artists never maximize their full potential or experience the true joy that creativity has to offer and, as a result, they carry that regret like a 50-pound chain around their neck for the rest of their lives?
Here is the problem we face as watercolor artists in the digital age - we've become so bombarded with so much information that we don't know what to focus on. We know that there must be a process, but without knowing what it is we jump from one piece of information to the next, hoping it will magically all come together.
Which means you'll never get a chance to reach your fullest potential as a watercolor artist in the most simple and effective way, or be able to share with the rest of the world what you are truly capable of as an artist.
There is a solution. Now there is a break-through method of teaching watercolor painting. An accelerated learning process that will help you to unlock your potential in the most efficient and effective way possible. A process that I developed myself purely by accident.
Let me explain...
Most people don't know it, but I am a self-taught artist. Everything I know as an artist I learned over many years, and mostly by trial and error. I learned about fundamental art concepts as I created paintings, finding out what worked and what didn't work, and making many adjustments along the way.
Essentially I was learning by doing.
...and then I had a revelation.
What if I were able to teach that same method? Where folks could "learn by doing" the same way I did, but with guided instruction so that they could learn art fundamentals and painting techniques, and then apply them for immediate results? They would not only be gaining the knowledge, but also the needed confidence and belief in themselves to keep moving forward. The thing that keeps most people from even trying to paint with watercolors in the first place.
That is what makes this teaching method so unique and effective.
How do I know this method works?
Because I've been teaching students in my live watercolor workshops this unique approach to watercolor painting for years.
Folks who had never picked up a paintbrush in their lives were able to learn basic technique and immediately create beautiful paintings using what they had just learned. The confidence in their own abilities exploded! The result was that they learned faster than ever before, and continued coming back for more of the same kind of instruction. Basic fundamental art principles with painting exercises designed around those principles.
Now, you will be able to receive the same life changing watercolor instruction my live workshop students have received with my new virtual "Watercolor Mastery Workshops" (plus some new cutting edge material I am excited to share with you)!
