Class Summary

Flowers surround us wherever we go. We may spot a blooming rose bush on a walk, discover wildflowers on a hike, or visit a botanical garden on a trip. Even in the bleakest, coldest environments, we see flowers in everyday items like wall paper, a colorful blouse, or on our favorite tea mug. Join me in this online self-paced art course and learn how to draw four of the most common flowers: a daisy, a tulip, a rose and a carnation in four different ways!

Class Goal

By the end of the course you will not only be well versed in drawing and watercoloring 4 common flowers, but you will have also discovered a little more about your own artistic style preferences. Many of the flowers drawn in this class are closely related to other varieties so with your new skills you should be able to create a whole bouquet of flowers!

Introduction

In this class, we are going to practice drawing with pen and watercoloring some common flowers in different ways to find our own personal preference. We will concentrate by using four specific flowers and render each in a doodle style, an abstract style, a realistic style and an impressionistic style. In the end, we will discuss which style we prefer (and why) and use this knowledge when we work on our assigned homework.
