This step-by-step class teaches you how to identify geometric figures in plants, animals and objects all the way to creating a composition.

Module 1: Buds and Florets
Find the perfect balance of water and paint while maintaining the right opacity of gouache. Unearth the qualities of blocking, layering, scumbling, and dry blending in a non-intimidating approach. This module is perfect for kids and beginners! 
Module 3: Flora and Fauna
Level up and experiment on your flora and fauna composition using the staining technique. Also known as painting on toned grounds, cover an area of your substrate with a layer of paint to serve as your painting's foundation. Similar to watercolor, this process can efficiently and effectively be used to swathe parts such as ground and sky! |
Module 2: Potted Plants
Study the principles of design as you arrange different floral elements in a single composition. Start by applying concepts of symmetry and proportion at the very start of the sketch. Apply contrast as you learn ways to create hues of green and brown using the colors in your tubes and pans! |
