Fearless Flowers
ARE YOU READY TO LEARN HOW TO TRUST YOUR INTUITION SO THAT YOU CAN LET GO AND HAVE FUN WHEN CREATING?
In FEARLESS FLOWERS, I will share my techniques for painting bold, beautiful flowers in acrylics. For me, my studio is a place for fun and freedom. A place where there are no mistakes! My motto is if you don't like a piece it's just not finished yet.
In this course, we will discuss trusting intuition, letting go, and having a good time while painting. We will experiment with different surfaces such as canvas, board, and paper with five projects ranging in size from SMALL to BIG! I will also share my secrets to colour choices and mixing along with my favourite tools to create texture and interest to a piece. Students will complete this course with the tools to create gorgeous floral art that is sure to make a statement!

Bonus Lesson! - Two in Blue
One of the ways I stay loose and free when painting is by painting more than one piece at a time. That way I can move back and forth between them and avoid overworking a piece. In this lesson I begin by painting two pieces simultaneously. One comes easily and turns out as planned...the other...not so much. I stick with it though persevering through many layers to create a finished piece I am happy with!
