About Us
Hello, my name is Konstantin Chinkov and I’ve been painting since the age of 2. I didn’t really appreciate watercolor painting until around the age of 18. I always had difficulty with it, but over time learned how to control the medium and fell deeply in love with it.
Fast forward several more years and I got the idea to make these books so that it can be something that my nephew might enjoy. I quickly found out that other people enjoy them too, but the biggest bonus was the videos.
A lot of people enjoy watercolor painting and there’s also a lot who want to try it, but just can’t get the hang of it. That’s where the videos come in. I’m by no means an expert, but I truly enjoy painting every time that I sit down to do it. In the videos I try to convey to people to let go a bit and try to have fun more so than to make everything perfect. The reason being is that this helps keep a person interested and when you’re having fun doing something then naturally you want to keep doing it. The improvement comes from this repetition.
I also spent a very long time figuring out my process and where to get the raw materials so that I can provide a quality product at an affordable price. This way people aren’t discouraged by the ridiculous cost of some art supplies. Especially for watercolors.
I truly enjoy what I do and I wish to share some of this joy with others who are interested in watercolor painting or art in general. If you’d like to get some more information about me and why I make these books here is an excellent article that the local newspaper did:
