Flower Fantasia
Fantasia: a composition with a free form and often an improvisatory style.
Creating from the imagination frees you from perfectionism, allowing you to follow your bliss. In this online watercolor class we'll be creating flowers - using nature as our muse - following the guidelines of form and light, but ultimately letting our imagination lead the way.
Welcome to Flower Fantasia.



CLASS INFO:
-
I would consider this class level the next step after 'beginner' - if you've taken one of my other classes or have a pretty good understanding of watercolor, this class is perfect. There is something here for everyone! My process is not difficult and involves a lot of intuitive painting. No matter your level, you'll learn! (If you've never used watercolor before, I would suggest starting with Cosmic Watercolor or Enchanted Feathers first.)
-
This is a self-guided study with live recorded lessons available when you arrive. No waiting for projects to be posted and you can learn at your own pace. You have unlimited, lifetime access.
-
The lessons are video based. I walk you through step by step, with each lesson building on the next.
-
There are colorful photographs and plenty of written tips and inspiration along the way.
-
Class can be viewed via most digital devices, but viewing the video lessons is best done on a computer or tablet screen.
-
A high-speed connection is highly suggested!

WHAT WE'LL BE PAINTING:
Poppies, Calla Lillies and Roses, oh my! I'll show you how I draw and paint each of these beautiful flowers, using the basics of shape and form to accomplish a likeness, then allowing our imagination to fill in the details.
The three images above are the major projects we'll create. The painting techniques I use to create these flowers can be used to paint anything... There's plenty of information to keep you happily creating!
SUPPLIES:
-
I always say use what you have - but I urge painters to use artist grade watercolor paper in 140lb cold press - the choice is always yours!
