Loose Watercolor Florals

Learn to Paint Easy Flower Compositions and Bouquets

This class will teach you how to paint soft, delicate, loose-style watercolor floral compositions and bouquets. By the end of this class, you’ll not only have the skills and techniques to create beautiful blooms in your future paintings, you will also have two works of art to frame, hang up in your studio, or use as inspiration as you continue on in your watercolor journey.

This class is suitable for beginner and intermediate watercolor artists, and anyone who appreciates floral and botanical art like I do! I’ve broken up the class into bite-sized lessons with step-by-step instructions, and I’ve painted everything in real-time so you can follow along easily.
