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!

DESCRIPTION OF LESSONS
This course is made up of five lessons. In lesson one, we will paint a small floral on mixed media art board. This is a quick, fun lesson, where I introduce my intuitive approach to painting. After we warm up, we will move in to create three lessons with varying styles and techniques. We will be inspired by cherry blossoms, a vase of flowers, and large floral pieces! My last lesson is actually two pieces that I created. This lesson is a great example of how I push through in many of my pieces even when things aren't going as easily as I had hoped for! By the end of this course, you will have many beautiful floral pieces for your own home, or to share as gifts with the people that you love!
