Hello, art friends !
I’m Ralitsa, a Bulgarian watercolour artist, educator and the person behind Ralice Art.
I currently live in Basildon, UK, with my partner and our two little children. Before becoming an artist, I studied Psychology and Psychopathology of Development, and I have always been fascinated by the way creativity can influence how we feel and connect with ourselves.
My watercolour journey started during the pandemic, when I was pregnant with my son. It was a challenging time, and painting became a way for me to slow down, find some peace and reconnect with the things I love. What started as a little hobby soon grew into a passion, and eventually into my own art business.
I love painting nature, wildlife, seascapes and landscapes, using loose brushstrokes, vibrant colours and different watercolour techniques to create expressive paintings. Over time, I also discovered how much I enjoy teaching and sharing what I’ve learned along the way.
That’s why I created this community! I want to make learning watercolour accessible and enjoyable for everyone, whether you’re picking up a paintbrush for the first time or have been painting for years. My hope is that this will be a place where we can learn, experiment, share our work, ask questions and, most importantly, enjoy the process without worrying about perfection.
🌟 Now, I’d love to get to know you too! 🌟
Tell us a little about yourself in the comments:
- What’s your name and where are you from?
- Have you painted with watercolours before, or are you just getting started?
- What would you love to learn or improve?
- What do you enjoy painting most?
I know that you have answered some of these questions to me, but maybe the other members would like to get to know you too.
And if you have a painting you’d like to share, we’d love to see it! No judgement here. We’re all here to learn and encourage each other.
With love,
Rali xx
