I recently asked my students inside our student-only Facebook group to share some of their artwork from a class they had taken with me, and the results are AMAZING. I always enjoy scrolling through our feed and seeing the beautiful artwork created, and the amount of TALENT everyone has. The passion for creating art really does shine through their work.

Today, I wanted to share a few with you that have been shared recently inside the Facebook group.

Student Artwork & Watercolors Made Simple Reviews

Grace shared her practice florals as she wanted to create some cards for a rainy day, and WOW. I’m blown away by all of the attention to details and the colors used in each piece. Such beautiful work!

Kind words from Grace on life i design courses:

“Nicki's classes gave me much confidence to learn different techniques in using watercolor and become creative each time I pick up my brush! I have watched so many online tutorials but I still go back again in Lifeidesign and watch Nicki's courses to get back to paint...today is a good day to practice flowers and make cards as it rained all day in California”

Cheryl took one of my newest courses, Creative Freedom in Your Handmade Sketchbook and these pieces (and the sketchbook) are results! I LOVE seeing everyone’s handmade sketchbooks, it’s such a rewarding project when you complete binding your own book to paint in, and Cheryl did such an amazing job filling her new handmade sketchbook up!

Kind words from Cheryl - life i design review

“I completed the Creative Freedom sketchbook!! Loved it so much - I had only done a couple modules of Watercolors Made Simple when this came available. Have some skills to work on, but happy with my progress. Now on to my beginning classes again of WMS. Nicki you’re the best!”

Shirley took my Watercolor Made Simple class in 2022, and created som really pretty florals! So glad she decided to join the class and learn something new, I always love seeing her work pop up in my feed!

Shirley’s review on Watercolor Made Simple class

“In 2022 when covid hit and I was unable to work due to my store closing I needed something to do so I wouldn’t go mad. I found watercolors made simple on line and bought the first lesson. I twas the most rewarding thing I have ever done. @nicki_traikos is a fantastic teacher and you should check out @lifeidesign.”

Marianne’s sketchbook from the Creative Freedom class came out so beautiful! I loved when she shared “I did not even know that you could do it yourself” and then said she’s already made her SECOND sketchbook! This class breaks it down in really easy to follow steps so that you really enjoy the process of creating it!

Watercolor Made Simple class review + Creative Freedom class review from Marianne

“The first sketchbook from Creative Freedom class. So much fun. I did not even know that you could do it yourself. Second sketchbook I did last night. The cover page is an early painting that I did before even knowing that there were classes online. And I really liked the colors, found it and is a joy looking at it.

I also sketched the Hydragenia. Got inspired to sketch our sweetpeas in the garden.

I am so glad that I found Watercolor Made Simple and all other classes on Nicki Traikos - life i design. Thank you Nicki Traikos for providing this group. Blessings”
