Fun with Florals: Draw a Composition with Peonies in a Line Drawing Style

In this class you will learn to sketch and paint a simple floral pattern inspired by classical Indian Floral Designs in a very unique style.

When you’re painting flowers in a loose style, you don’t really have to care much if they will look realistic or not. All you need to do is capture the essence of the flower and you're good to go.

Hi, I’m Jessica Sanders, a self-taught watercolor and mixed-media artist who loves exploring art and sharing it with you!

Let’s paint a loose and sketchy abstract florals together!!

In this class for any level student, we will explore painting beautiful abstract florals.
I will walk you through painting three basic floral shapes, and practicing loose sketchy lines. I will demonstrate how to mix coral, teal, and interesting green paint colors for our watercolor flowers.
Then, we will chat about layers and details.
I will walk you through 2 different paintings:  a small floral, and a larger coral florals painting.

This class is not a realistic class. The approach is loose, impressionistic, and abstract.

Above all, our focus is on relaxing, staying loose, and enjoying the painting process.

And…..Secretly, almost like magic, we will improve our art and watercolor skills!

I have tried different styles in painting watercolor florals – doodles, illustration, semi-realistic, realistic, atmospheric, semi abstract – but I always find myself going back to loose and expressive flowers. Personally, it feels liberating, the style is forgiving and gives room for expression.
