Discover the beauty and boldness of watercolor florals in this poppy-focused workshop—perfect for beginners and those looking to grow their skills! Capture the graceful curves, delicate textures, and dramatic shapes of poppies—both in bloom and as buds—through a striking monochromatic study. Using just one color palette, minimal tools, and the luminous qualities of India inks, you’ll explore wet-on-wet techniques, layering, and how to create depth from soft backgrounds to detailed foregrounds.
You’ll start with warm-up exercises to loosen your brushwork, then build toward a completed floral composition, all while following along with your provided workbook. This class is designed to be approachable for first-time watercolor painters while still offering exciting challenges for those with some experience. You’ll leave with new techniques, creative confidence, and a poppy-filled masterpiece of your own.
