Shesvii Watercolor &amp;amp; Pigments

"We all start painting our life journey on a blank canvas."

I'm Sofía, a Spanish artist that finds inspiration in every corner of this journey that is life.

It could be said that my works consist of a harmonic combination of illustration and loose painting when it comes to technique, regarding subject and influences, those may vary.
Exploring the beauty of the female body with a touch of fantasy and surrealism is my preferred subject choice.

I'm also a paint maker. Visit the shop to know more about my high quality handmade watercolours!

Do you make custom colours?

Yes, I do! Please contact me through my Instagram at @shesvii_watercolours or through the Contact page on my website.

How does shipping work?

I ship worldwide.
The fixed price for worldwide shipping will be automatically added to your cart once you complete your order.
I ship the parcels using the Spanish post office Correos.
For reference, it takes around 5 days for an order to arrive to Germany and around 20 days to arrive to Canada.

I purchased your Paper halfpan guide and didn't receive a file. What do I do?

This is a common error people are experiencing. Please do not hesitate to contact me through the Contact section of my website or through my Instagram at @shesvii_watercolours.
In case you didn't get the option to download the PDF tutorial and stencil, I'll happily mail it to you.

What are the payment options available?

Right now the only payment option available is PayPal.
Safe, quick and easy.

Where are you based?

I'm a Spanish artist and paint maker based in a small town near Madrid.
In short, I live and work in Spain, Europe.

Why do you use clove oil on your paints?

Clove oil is a natural preserver and fungicide that keeps mold away and helps the paint stay wet and healthy.
Plus it smells good!

Castilla-La Mancha, Spain
