The Little Adventures Collection is a heartfelt invitation to slow down, stay curious, and just have fun — without big commitments or steep learning curves. Each adventure follows its own path: gathering a pocketful of supplies, followed by a smidgen of practice, and a magical swirling of paper and paint to create your illustration. It leaves you with the lovely energy to sprinkle new ideas, extra versions, or simply more moments of play into your days — as much or as little as you like.
WHO THIS COLLECTION IS FOR?
This collection is for anyone who loves watercolor, line work, and small illustrated stories — whether you’re beginning your creative practice or returning to it with fresh eyes.
It’s especially helpful for:
Beginners who want clear steps, simple supplies, and projects that feel doable from the very start.
Returning artists who appreciate self-paced courses with intentional space — each new adventure released every two months, giving you time to explore, revisit, and imagine the possibilities between projects.
Experienced creatives who enjoy refining their style through thoughtful line work, color play, and tiny illustrated details, with each adventure offering a new direction to investigate.
The release schedule offers room to learn, experiment, and grow — a steady way to build your creative practice without ever feeling rushed or behind.

WHAT’S INCLUDED
With this collection, you’ll receive all six Little Adventures, released every two months throughout 2026. Each adventure is a complete, start-to-finish project designed to fit into the small pockets of your day — steady, doable, and full of illustrated charm.
Every adventure includes:
Step-by-step video lessons. Filmed in the same calm, encouraging style you’re used to — clear demonstrations, thoughtful pacing, and plenty of space to follow along.
A coordinating illustrated workbook. Practice pages, examples, and drawing prompts pulled straight from Danielle’s sketchbooks to guide your study and exploration.
A start-to-finish illustration project. Each adventure ends with a full piece — something you’ll draw, ink, and paint using the skills you’ve gathered along the way.
Lifetime access. Rewatch, redraw, or repaint whenever you like. These little adventures are yours to keep.
SUPPLIES YOU’LL NEED
Each Little Adventure uses a familiar set of Creative Essentials, beginning with artist-grade supplies that make watercolor work easier and more enjoyable: artist-grade watercolors, watercolor brushes, 140 lb cold press paper, a mechanical pencil, a white eraser, and a few everyday tools like a clear ruler and artist’s tape.
Most supplies stay the same across the entire Collection.
Each adventure includes a short list of small course-specific extras—things like a specialty pen, scissors, or pop-dots—and these are clearly noted in the printable handouts.
You’re encouraged to begin with the materials you already own, choosing artist-grade versions when possible, and add only the colors, tools, and consumables that speak to you.
