Course Description

Overview

Welcome to Watercolor Painting: How to Paint Loose Florals, this class was a lot of fun to film and create! 

I show you how I explore new tools and color palettes as we practice painting a variety of florals that are loose and abstract in form.

My goal for you with this class is to show you a playful way through my process of picking color palettes, understanding how to use our brushes better, observing and learning how to paint loose, flowers, and even how to start planning compositions with your floral pieces.

I share with you floral pieces that I didn't love nor did I love the color used... just to show you that it's ok to not love everything you paint and not to take your practice seriously! Experiment, explore, and just practice your watercolor skills!

The key is to enjoy the process, become more familiar with your watercolor paint, and practice as much as you can, while having fun with watercolors!

I hope you click enrol to join me in this new loose, floral, watercolor class designed with the beginner in mind, but everyone is welcome!

Let's get started!
