Midnight Blooms | Brenda Dwyer, Instructor

Discover the striking beauty of contrast in this elegant white-on-black floral painting class! Inspired by delicate pincushion blossoms set against a dramatic dark background, this workshop focuses on movement, linework and texture.

Using fine point oil-based markers on black canvas, you’ll learn how to build luminous layers with simple strokes, create dimensions with highlights and add intricate details to leaves and seed pods. We’ll explore techniques for controlled linework, dot accents and subtle shading to make your blooms glow.

Perfect for beginners and experienced painters alike, this class emphasizes creativity and confidence. You’ll leave with a bold, modern floral piece that feels both sophisticated and expressive — a stunning piece ready to display.
