This workshop is for you:

If you want to learn how to render flowers realistically and master different watercolor techniques, from botanical painting to sketching.

What will the workshop include?

  • Learning the basics of botanical painting.
  • Contrasting the techniques of classical botanical painting with one-layer painting.
  • Applying layering techniques to get a more realistic image in the center of the composition.
  • Alla prima watercolor technique. Transitions, nuances, shadows, veins, details: everything is applied at once in about two minutes, while the sheet gets dry. This technique teaches you a lot: to see, to calculate in advance and to avoid mistakes during the painting process.
  • Basics of painting wet-on-wet.
  • Coloring and color matching for painting light and shadow.
  • Composition and aerial perspective.
  • Arranging objects on a sheet, distancing objects and bringing them closer.
