There are so many gorgeous flowers out there that I have a lot of favorites.  These three, Hellebore, Lavender and Mandevilla are on my mind because of either their characteristics or the photos I have of them.  We will paint three paintings, using the included reference photos as inspiration.  I’ll show you how I approach painting a floral from a reference and the ways I depart from the photo to create my own version of what I see or want to see.  Let’s get started!

We will take inspiration from photo references of mine that I include in class downloads. 

What you’ll get in this class:

• Learn how to create loose and vibrant florals in layers.
• Learn how to make use of meandering lines to make the composition interesting.
• Learn to use gouache or acrylic in a watercolory kind of way.
• Learn to use an image as an inspiration sources but then also to depart from it and let your imagination take over.
