This waterfall painting was created using a wax-resist technique with watercolors. The wax is used to block out areas to keep the white of the paper, creating the effect of splashing water.
A student works on a watercolor painting of a cityscape. Watercolor requires a careful balance of water and pigment, a skill we practice extensively to achieve both detailed work and soft washes.
A gouache painting of a French window with flower pots. Gouache is an opaque watercolor that allows for vibrant colors and layering, perfect for creating illustrative and charming scenes like this.
A student uses oil pastels to create a colorful still life of a lantern. Oil pastels are a fun and direct medium, allowing for rich color blending and expressive mark-making.
This is a mixed media painting that combines a textured, abstract background with relief work figures. In my mixed media classes, I encourage students to experiment with different materials to create unique artworks.
A student adds the final touches to a mixed media portrait. This piece combines painting with 3D elements to create textured hair, adding a unique sculptural dimension to the artwork.

A student works on a watercolor and ink illustration of a city street. This technique is popular in urban sketching and travel journaling, and I teach the skills needed to capture scenes on the go.

About Watercolor, Gouache & Mixed Media
What many don't realize is that watercolor and gouache aren't just about applying pigment; they're about managing water flow and patience. In our classes, we focus on the practical 'how-to'—like why your paper buckles when you overwork it or how to get that perfect opaque gouache layer without it turning muddy. You will leave our sessions with finished, frame-worthy A3 artworks, not just loose practice sheets.
Painting is our way of slowing down. At RangSangam, we believe that watercolor painting, gouache, and mixed media offer a unique form of mindfulness that anyone can tap into. Our classes are designed to take the intimidation out of the medium. We guide you through the essentials, from mastering wet-on-wet watercolor techniques to handling the rich, opaque quality of gouache.
Whether you join us at our quiet studio in Chandapura or connect with us online, our approach remains the same: step-by-step guidance. For those interested in mixed media, we encourage experimentation—combining watercolors with ink, relief work, or even textured elements to see how different materials react on paper and canvas.
Why choose our courses?
- Small Batch Sizes: We keep groups small (4-6 students) so you get proper attention to fix your technique.
- Practical Skills: We teach composition, color theory, and layering so you understand the 'why' behind every stroke.
- Flexibility: We offer both in-studio sessions in Bangalore and online classes for those further away.
If you are worried about supplies, don't be. We provide a curated shopping list to help you get the right materials without overspending. Our goal is for you to walk away with professional-grade work and the confidence to keep painting long after the course ends. You bring your interest, and we will handle the rest.
