We always suggest starting with the medium that intrigues you most, rather than what you think is easiest. In our live, small-group sessions, we guide you through the specific quirks of each material, from controlling watercolor washes to the bold, forgiving nature of acrylics, so you can stop guessing and start creating. ### How We Help You Choose Many students come to us thinking they aren't 'artistic' simply because they tried one medium that didn't click. Maybe you found watercolors too unpredictable or pen and ink too rigid. In our online sessions, we break down these barriers by teaching the foundational behavior of the paint or pencil first. **The Mediums We Cover** * **Watercolors:** Learn the delicate balance of pigment and water. We focus on wet-on-wet techniques that help you embrace the flow rather than fight it. * **Oil Pastels:** Perfect for those who want vibrant, immediate color. We teach you how to blend and layer these to create depth without needing complex equipment. * **Pen and Ink:** Ideal for the patient creator. We use this to explore patterns, textures, and the meditative side of drawing. * **Acrylics:** Our go-to for bold, expressive pieces. We use palette knives and brushes to show you how to build texture and impasto effects. ### Why Live Classes Matter We don't use pre-recorded videos because art is a conversation. When you're working with a new medium, you will have moments where the paint puddles or the ink bleeds in a way you didn't expect. Being in a small, live batch (max 8-10 students) means we can troubleshoot that exact moment with you. You get to see our hands working on the canvas in real-time, and we get to see yours. Whether you are a complete beginner or looking to pick up a new hobby, our goal is to get you past the 'I can't draw' phase. If you aren't sure where to start, join one of our pay-as-you-like weekend workshops. It is the lowest-pressure way to see if a medium suits your creative style before committing to a full course. ## About Culture Chauraha We’re a mom-and-daughter team who believe art is for everyone. When we aren't painting, we're busy helping students from India to the US get past their 'I can't draw' phase in our small, live online classes.
