Overview

Save Big on Coursera Plus. 7,000+ courses at $160 off. Limited Time Only!

In this class we will have lots of fun painting with water! Through series of fun and relaxing exercises we will start with simple shapes and finish painting 5 class projects of beautiful wildflowers in loose style! The aim of this class is to help you to feel the water and be brave to add more water to your artworks, because the beauty of watercolours starts when you add water!! In fact, it´s not just a class, but is a complete mini course on painting wildflowers.

This class is perfect for beginners and those who have been painting for a while with watercolours, but find that their artworks are missing this light and transparency of watercolours. This class also contains many tips for sketching while hiking or when you are painting on plain air. 

So, are you ready to paint with water? Grab your water brushes and let´s dive into painting! :)
