Have you ever wondered how to use a dagger brush? Join me in this class as we talk about the strokes that you can do with this brush and how you can apply it to your painting. We will create fun and expressive florals using this brush. This class is packed with helpful tips so make sure to watch all the projects. :) 

The class is suited for beginners and for seasoned artists who want to try a different style of painting.

Here are the topics that we will learn:

  • Definition of a Dagger Brush
