You will learn a few tips and techniques along the way, of how I do it, but it’s also a chance to take it further, to experiment and play along with your own unique style of art.

Class project:

As a class project. I invite you to go outside and choose your flower of choice. Try to find and create each part of the flower, from the stems and leaves, to the bud, seeds and petals. Then you will get to put it together, to create your own flower composition.

Next choose what you would like to use it for, such as a thank you card to a friend or to illustrate a favorite quote, use it as a book cover or for your monthly planner, etc. The ideas are endless.

And don’t forget to share a photo of your work with the community here.
