A progress tracker, a guide to my favourite books and a little library of references to keep you inspired and growing long after you've completed the course.
Discover the magic of slowing down and creating tiny, beautiful artworks—no experience required.
I'll teach you the unique watercolour method I’ve developed over the past 12 years (and hundreds of paintings), broken down into simple, calming, easy-to-follow steps.
If you’re curious about miniature painting—or just craving a mindful creative practice—this course will guide you from blank paper to two completed, detailed paintings. Along the way, you'll acquire skills and techniques that will serve you for years to come.
I'll show you how to work with watercolour confidently, how to build layers, soften edges, mix colours, control light and shadow, and capture your finished tiny artwork beautifully.
Hi! I'm Lorraine Loots.
I'm a South African artist known for my tiny, detailed watercolour paintings. What started as a small side project—365 Paintings for Ants—unexpectedly grew into a global phenomenon, bringing me hundreds of thousands of followers and exhibitions from New York to Hong Kong.
Even though I stepped away from art for a while, I found my way back through the quiet ritual of painting one miniature a day—a practice rooted in nostalgia, practicality, and paying attention to the small things.
Today, my work continues to celebrate the beauty of detail, memory, and intentional creativity, and I’m so excited to share what I’ve learned with you in this course.
