In this course, I will teach you how to paint realistic botanicals using watercolors.

I will walk you through my process of approaching a painting from start to finish. I will talk about how to find inspiration, take pictures and combine different images to create a nice composition for your final painting. I'll share my simplest techniques in this class so if you are a beginner, after taking this class you'll be confident enough to pick up your brushes and start your botanical illustration journey.

We will use Wet on Dry technique instead of Wet on Wet for making it as simple a process for anyone to follow along.
