Peonies in Watercolor: Floral Study

$55.00

May 25th, 2024 • 1:00 PM- 3:00 PM

Peonies are in bloom, and we are expressing them in Watercolor.

Deep dive into the iconic bloom of the Peony flower in this beginner-friendly workshop!

Build upon foundational floral painting techniques to create a loose Peonies cluster composition. We will explore the shapes, strokes, and specific greenery details to express the Peony flower in its various stages of life! We will discuss your brush's specific strokes, movements, directionality, and paint application to achieve this loose floral representation.

We will focus on creating an organic and loose study of the Peony flower and its leaves.

During class, we will discuss illustrative watercolor painting practices to capture the essence of this flower. Students will complete an 8x10 floral study to take home! 

Students will work from life in this class and use actual Peonies as inspiration.  

At the beginning of the workshop, students will be able to build their own “bouquet” from a collection of various Peonies and use them as a reference for the class.

Your bouquet is yours to take home at the end of class and is included in the ticket price !

Students will receive a workbook to follow with the instructor during the class!

This class is a great building block for those students who have taken beginning floral watercolor classes.

Level:

Though this is a beginner-friendly class, it is excellent for those who consider themselves at the intermediate level, have a basic understanding of brush control and the power of wet-on-dry painting, and would like to push toward a more detailed flower!

We will focus on the Peony's petal shape and accompanying stems and greens. 

Age:

This class is appropriate for ages 18+.

Supplies:

All supplies needed for this class are included in the $50 ticket price.
