Overview

Save Big on Coursera Plus. 7,000+ courses at $160 off. Limited Time Only!

Learn to create stunning watercolor floral paintings through exploring different color combinations!

One of the ways to get comfortable with painting florals intuitively is to practice and try out different color combinations. If you are having a hard time with choosing colors, then this is class is for you!

When I was starting out with watercolor, I would choose a color combination before I would paint on my paper. I realized that by doing so, it gave me direction on how I will paint the flowers on that day and how it will flow on the paper. Following a color combination can help you decide on how to create a floral composition.

This is a multi-day challenge class which means that one project will be uploaded everyday for two weeks.

In this class, you will learn the following:

  • Essential Materials

  • Watercolor Techniques

  • Basic Floral Elements and Leaves

  • Color Schemes
    • Complementary, Analogous, Monochromatic and Triadic

  • How to Draw Inspiration from a Reference Photo

  • 15 Floral Projects Using Different Color Combinations
    • Bouquets, Wreaths, Single Stems

The goal of the class is to help you hone your floral painting skills, improve the muscle memory in your hand and be more comfortable to try new colors. 

This class is suitable for students who have been painting for a while but beginners are welcome to join as I have designed the class for you to paint along as I teach.
