Learn to paint these elegant floral stems in under an hour! Bring your wedge brush or triangle brush to class and let's get started! 

  • You will learn the exact technique of how to manipulate & grip your brush to make these gorgeous florals, stems, & leaves.
  • No voice overs. I paint and talk as we do this together, step-by-step.
  • Videos are in real time so you can easily follow along.
  • Pick any color of paint you want! Your choice, use whatever you have.
  • We first practice the technique for painting your florals (I use Naphthamide Maroon). Next, a little practice painting leaves (using Zoisite Genuine). Then I walk you through 2 floral stems, complete from start to finish. With one I use burnt sienna, the other, indigo. 
  • You learn how to delicately enhance your florals with a 005 black Micron, Sakura white Gelly Roll pen, or Sakura Gelly Roll Stardust glitter pen
  • If you don't have a wedge or triangle brush, a dagger may work, but results will not be exact
