Join us for an immersive, step-by-step watercolor workshop designed to help you master atmospheric landscapes and vibrant floral details.

- The Magic of Wet-on-Wet: Learn how to mix and blend smooth, seamless sunset skies and soft, blurred horizon lines without hard edges.
- Mastering Edge Control: Discover how to contrast razor-sharp, defined foreground petals against a beautiful, impressionistic background field.
- Creating Depth & Value: Use strategic color choices—contrasting warm golden yellows against cool teals and deep greens—to make your art pop.
- Texture & Dimension: Learn precise brushwork and lifting techniques to build rich, detailed flower centers that retain their transparency. Learn how to create textures using salt.
- Paint on professional high-quality paper using professional techniques and methods.

What to Expect
You'll receive step-by-step guidance, live demonstrations, and a lot of positivity and support, but you are also welcome to adjust and make changes on your own. We will have a reference image. We will use it to sketch from and to observe. You will leave the workshop with a beautiful, finished painting of your own and a toolkit of professional techniques you can apply to any future landscape. We will learn the best techniques for painting flowers, landscapes, and sunset skies, which involves painting on very wet paper that we wet on both sides. You will have the chance to paint on high-quality professional paper, which is essential for achieving the best results.
About the artist:
My name is Zlatka Angelova, I started my artistic journey in 2019 after moving from Bulgaria to the United States. I fell in love with both oil and watercolors and I have been painting ever since. What I love most about watercolors is the freedom of expression and the sense of unpredictability that comes with techniques like wet-on-wet. It's a medium that encourages you to let go and embrace the unexpected.
My hope for this workshop is to share that feeling with you. I believe that watercolors can be incredibly interesting and expressive. I want to empower you, increase your confidence, and create an inspiring group experience where you feel a sense of connection and belonging.
