This class is designed for students with prior watercolor experience who are eager to build on their skills in botanical painting. Students will learn to closely observe plants and depict them in botanically accurate and highly detailed watercolor. Explore methods for capturing the delicate details of botanical subjects, including leaves, flowers, roots, fruit, and pollinators. Together, we’ll work on layering transparent washes, perfecting dry brush techniques, and achieving realistic light, shadow, and depth to bring compositions to life. Techniques include layered wet-into-wet washes, damp painting, dry brush, masking fluid, lifting and more. A supply list is provided at registration. Intermediate - Advanced students welcomed! Already taken this class? Enroll in additional sessions to further develop your skills. A supply list will be emailed at the time of registration. Approximate supply cost, depending on materials already owned: $150.
