Bec Watson

Bec Watson is a passionate visual artist and creative educator based in the UK, known for her expressive use of colour and her calm, encouraging teaching style. Through her work, she inspires others to slow down, connect with their creativity, and rediscover the joy of making art.

After 17 years of developing her own distinctive style in watercolour, acrylic, and mixed media, Bec founded BecWatsonArt.com to share her love of painting with others. Her online art courses have helped hundreds of students — from complete beginners to experienced painters — build confidence, learn new techniques, and find personal meaning in their creative journey.

Bec believes that everyone has an artist within them, waiting to be nurtured. Her lessons focus on freedom of expression, mindful creativity, and the beauty of imperfection, creating a space where learning feels relaxing, supportive, and deeply rewarding.

When she’s not teaching or painting, Bec finds inspiration in nature, light, and the peaceful rhythm of everyday life — influences that shine through in her artwork.

“Art isn’t just about technique,” she says. “It’s about connection — to yourself, to others, and to the world around you.”
