Sunflowers in Watercolor

Celebrate the final days of summer through a vibrant watercolor study of the sunflower. Focus on capturing the flower’s iconic radial shape, layered petals, and rich natural textures while working with a limited color palette and simple floral sketches. Explore foundational watercolor techniques including layering, glazing, and detail-driven illustrative painting through guided warm-up exercises and demonstrations. Throughout class, work toward creating a finished 8x10 sunflower study to take home, full of warmth and seasonal color. A workbook will be provided to follow along during class, making this a perfect next step for anyone looking to continue building their floral watercolor skills.
