You're invited to join us in learning the fundamentals of botanical watercolour painting. Whether you've a few paintings under your belt, or are just starting out with watercolour, I'll have some fresh tips and tricks for you to discover, as well as a printed guide to take home.
NOTE This ticket is for the single stand-alone Lesson ii. You can purchase a ticket for the whole course/ all 4 lessons together (this block runs Jun-July '25) here (if it's full, sign up for my monthly newsletter where you'll hear when I plan the next course). You can join us for this one session, or for all four.
We'll work on how to~
- Become familiar with your materials
- Translate your vision for the painting on to the page
- Create stunning and convincing botanicals and florals
- Make painting a fun and stress-free experience!
Each session has a different focus~
Lesson ii~ 'Mark-Making: Techniques for a Beautiful Painting' (Sat 21st Jun 10.00-11.30)
- Different painting and brush techniques, such as
Using negative space (dramatic florals), wet-on-wet, glazing, dry-brush, brushstroke styles.
Once you’ve practiced these you’ll have more fun ways to paint and be more intentional with your mark-making.
Each lesson will have a different choice of real and photographed botanical subjects to paint and study, and you'll pick up the fundamentals which can be applied to any painting subject, not just botanicals.
