Drawing nature: Bring leaves and flowers to life with ink and gouache

In this class, I’m going to show you how to draw leafs and flowers from nature with ink. We’ll add a bit of color as a second step.
We’ll take a look at different kinds of basic drawing techniques, and how you can add interest to your drawing by adding texture and details. I’ll also demonstrate how to work with a limited color palette. I’ll show you basic leaf and floral shapes and how to observe and draw from nature and simplify organic shapes in a pleasing way.
