Expressive Floral Lesson
Single Art Lesson | Immediate Access
Regular Price: $42.00
ACRYLIC PAINTS & SOFT PASTELS
Inspired by the magic of The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett we will create a series of express floral paintings. You will begin by creating a background in a color on cradleboard or canvas, from the color palette you created earlier in the class.
I will guide you through my process of creating loose flowers and then building up layers of pastels, acrylics, mark-making, and beautiful texture.
A single art lesson from my class Ladies of Literature.
