If you’ve tried the tutorials, bought the supplies, followed all the right steps
AND still feel like something’s missing…
You’re not alone (and you’re not doing it wrong)
You might just be at a different stage than what those steps were made for.
The Artist Passage is a free quiz and resource to help you see where you are in your creative practice so you can stop second-guessing and start painting in a way that feels like you.
In my very first masterclass, I taught a flower step by step.
Every student followed along beautifully and by the end, they had all painted the exact same thing.
That’s when I realised:
I had taught them how to copy… not how to create.
Since then, I’ve changed how I teach.
I don’t just walk you through techniques. I help you understand where you are in your artist journey so you can build trust in your own voice and the tools you already have.
Because your art should feel like yours not mine.
Hi, I’m Jillian
and I teach watercolor from the inside out.
When I first started painting, I followed every tutorial I could find.
I even painted the same ‘beginner friendly bracket’ loose roses everyone else was painting.
And for a while, I almost got it. But inside, it felt like something was missing.
The rose almost broke me.
Not because I wasn’t trying but because I wasn’t creating anything that felt like mine.
That moment became a turning point.
Now, I teach in a way that helps you build a relationship with your art, your tools, and most importantly your voice.
Because when you stop copying and start connecting, your art becomes something deeper: it becomes yours.
This isn’t about doing it “right.”
It’s about painting what feels true, learning in a way that fits your rhythm, and feeling proud of what you create.
