Come to this beginner to intermediate class to watercolor portraits of plants. In this class you’ll capture the different moments from the lifecycle of a plant (bulbs, seed heads, flowers, leaves, fruit). Students will learn: how to create a harmonious color palette, techniques that produce realistic and accurate paintings, an understanding how light reveals form, and how to improve their observational and visual interpretation skills. Students will work from both photographs and live specimens. Upon completion of class, students will leave with finished watercolor pieces and the confidence to paint other subject matter! Students will receive a required supply list upon registration.
