Home is seriously where the heart is! A house becomes symbolic of so many things in life, special holidays spent around tables with friends and family, my nephew taking his first steps and laughs that cause the walls to shake. Thinking about my home tugs on all of my hearts strings!
Our new educator…
We were so excited when we found Lauren Smith from Prosecco and Prints who specializes in turning photos of your home into one of a kind watercolor pieces! We have seriously fallen in love with everything she creates. Soo, we asked her if she would teach our community how they can create these one of a kind portraits and well y’all, she’ll be here on May 2nd!!
Can you believe that we are lucky enough to have sweet Lauren in our studio?! She will be sharing her deep love for all things watercolor with us. I can’t wait to see everyone’s beautiful portraits that they create. Check out our Educator Profile below to see why Lauren Smith is going to be so amazing at teaching us this workshop!

What made you want to teach workshops?
“I love sharing what brings me joy with others!”
When and how did you discover your passion for watercolor house portraits?
“I’m a graphic designer and self-taught calligrapher. So I’ve always been interested in learning watercolor as it comes hand in hand with calligraphy. I took some classes a couple of years ago and fell in love with it.”
Tell us some fun things about you!
“I live in Huntersville with my husband, two orange cats, and incredibly high maintenance puppy. I love everything watercolor and I am always creatively curious!”
Where did you grow up?
“30 mins from Philadelphia!”
What inspires you?!
“Listening to some mellow tunes while nursing a cup of coffee.”
I want to paint my own home portrait…!
We do too! We are so excited to have you here at Bells Box creating your very own Watercolor House Portraits. Grab your ticket here!!
