I am so happy to have you here, here’s what we are learning in this class :
In the first section of this class, we'll be discussing all the supplies and then we will be leaning in to understand and sketch the bare-bones structure of the magnolia flower.

We will then be learning to mix and prepare our vintage color palette, we will also be looking into how to achieve optimal paint to water mix for our washes of color  

In the next section, we will be painting our loose magnolia flowers,  We will be learning about the concepts of lighter and darker values and how to leverage that to create controlled bleeds and blooms also know as wet on wet watercolor technique. 


Next up we will be exploring different options to add details to our flowers through wet on dry watercolor technique.

Lastly, we will be combining all our learnings together to create our final magnolias wreath, we will also be briefly looking into how to create a sense of balance and movement in a wreath composition.

This class is designed to be enjoyed by artists at all levels and is in real-time so that we can join along in every step together and complete all the flowers. So what are you waiting for? Grab some watercolor and a beverage of your choice and let us paint loose watercolor magnolia flowers :)
