Description:
Join Susan Pearson for a 3-week series on botanical watercolour. Each week you will focus on a single botanical specimen, and channel all your colours into the stem, leaves and flowers. With finer brushes, you can bring intricate reference materials to this workshop in order to create a realistic painting. Use your creativity to choose colours, while maintaining discipline in your portrayal of botanical pieces. For this class, Susan suggests that participants have the following materials at home: Paper - Arches 140lb-300lb. cold press watercolour paper, 9” x 12” or larger. This course will take place live online, and will not be recorded. Pre-registration required. If you have unused Education Credits, you can use them to pay for this course!
