Hi, I’m Louee — a brush-happy human just trying to figure it out, one puddle at a time.

Free Workshop

Masterpiece or Mess is my cozy little corner of the internet where I share the honest ups and downs of watercolor and gouache painting. Some days I make something I love. Other days, the paper buckles, the paint blooms, and everything turns the exact shade of regret.

But that’s the fun of it.

This site is part gallery, part art diary, and part celebration of creative chaos. Every “oops” teaches me something. Every win reminds me why I keep coming back to the brush.

If you’ve ever looked at your painting and thought,

“Is this brilliant or awful?”
…you’re in the right place.

Welcome to my art journey — the masterpieces, the messes, and all the beautiful maybes in between.
