Frequently Asked Questions


Who is the course for?

This course is developed for beginning watercolor artists. We will take our time, breaking things down into bite-sized lessons. But if you are an intermediate or advanced artist, you are welcome to join us! These paintings will be small, around 1 to 2 inches, some even smaller.


When does the course start and finish?

It's up to you! Begin at any time and work at your own pace.

How Long Will I Have Access to the Course?

  • If you purchase an individual course, you have access for as long as you like - across any and all devices you own.
  • With the monthly and annual membership, you have access for as long as you like - across any and all devices you own, until you cancel the subscription.

What supplies/materials do I need to participate?

A list of the materials found in the lessons is found at the beginning of the course as well as links for purchase. If you don’t have something on hand, I encourage you to use your favorite materials. 


What if I Need Help?

If you ever have a problem of any kind, Rebecca Rhodes will be happy to assist! Email at [email protected]


What if I am Unhappy with the Course?

I would never want you to be unhappy! If you are unsatisfied with your purchase, contact Rebecca Rhodes ([email protected]) within the first 30 days of purchase, and you will receive a full refund.


Can I download the videos to my own computer?

The videos are not available for download. All courses are hosted on the School website and as long as you have a high-speed internet connection you can watch them as many times as you like during the length of your membership.


Is the Site Secure?

Our website is SSL certified and your information is safe.


Is this the same course as the “Animal Eye Challenge?”

The content is similar in that we will be discussing materials, creating the drawing, and the formula for painting eyes. The difference is, the content will be presented in much more detail, over a longer period of time, with guided practice. Think of it this way: The Animals Eyes Challenge would be good for intermediate to advanced artists. This “Conquer Eyes” course is great for beginners because we will take you through every step in the process. 


My painting style is different from Rebecca’s. Will this course be helpful to me?

We all have our own unique style of painting! These lessons offer techniques and formulas that you can use to develop your own unique style. Take what works for you, and if something isn’t quite right for you, move on! ​


Where do I share my paintings?

Take a photo or scan of your painting and share it to all of these places using the hashtag #rebeccarhodesart.


Can I post my paintings from the courses on social media?

Yes! I encourage you to share your paintings on social media. By doing this, you are spreading the word about our course, helping others to find us. When you share your paintings, I'd appreciate if you would credit our watercolor school and use the hashtag #rebeccarhodesart. Thanks so much!

Hi! I'm Rebecca Rhodes, watercolor artist and teacher in Lehigh County, Pennsylvania.

My goal is to empower, encourage, and equip - to help you learn to paint detailed, realistic subjects in watercolor so you can use these techniques to develop your own unique style!

Before becoming a full-time artist, I enjoyed a 27-year career as a public school Music Educator. In 2015, I retired from teaching to focus on painting and founded this online school in 2017. I love to teach and hope that you find these courses enjoyable and helpful. Always feel free to contact me if you have questions or suggestions.
