This class is for beginner level artists who want to learn how to create a modern abstract floral painting. I will start off by showing you my workspace and supplies. Then we will walk through my process of creating a small abstract floral painting. I will show you how I layer my paintings and I will talk you through each step of the process along the way. I'll show you how I mix some of my favorite paint colors and I will give you my best tips for painting flowers.

- Jars or cups of clean water
