On the page Students you can find the newest watercolors of students.
A lot of students have never painted before, so it is great that so many people paint so beautiful watercolors for the first time.
For me, I like it that so many people start to make watercolors. A difficult but fascinating painting technique.
Take a look to see what a wonderful work some have made. Click here.

Initiator and founder of the Zeeuwse Aquarellisten Joke Klootwijk, lives since 2007 in Middelburg, Zeeland the Netherlands. Before she lived her whole life in the west of the country on the outskirts of Rotterdam. Since 1995, she paints in watercolor and which remains her passion.
Looking for fellow watercolorists in Zeeland is it so far Mattie Brown (illustrator) encountered at a unique way with watercolor in progress. The watercolor technique can be used in many ways, that is just so exciting .
Joke and Mattie sharing, the passion for watercolor painting and the pursuit of excellence in both painting and in presenting their work.
Perhaps in future more watercolorists from Zeeland added, so that together as a beautiful exhibition Watercolourists Zeeland may take. But it is certain that they inspire each others.
