COURSE LAUNCHES WEEK OF MARCH 22, 2023

Let's paint some wildflowers and weeds in a wellie and create an oversized card project together!

In the whimsical watercolor mini-class, I'm sharing bite-sized art lessons in watercolor and more. 

AND, we'll create a fun oversized card project together.  At the end of the series, you'll have 12 or more card projects that you handpainted. 

In This Mini Class, You Will Learn: 

• How to paint brushstroke pom pom wildflowers that are radiant with color and layers.
• How to mix purples and violets to achieve different looks and saturation of color.
• Basic composition for botanical painting
• How to paint leafery and filler flowers for your composition. 
• How to create a 3D daisy-like floral embellishment for your painting
• The wet-into-wet technique and how to mix colors to create contrast in the wellie
• How to paint rosettes and other filler flowers
• The splatter technique. A fan favorite.
• To get comfortable with brushstrokes and brush dancing
• To TRUST Yourself! You can do this!
