Learn to paint vibrant watercolour fruits with this masterclass. We’ll be painting delicious summer fruits, from apples and oranges to cherries and blueberries, and then combining them into a fresh, juicy scatter pattern.

This class will show you how to achieve a loose, expressive style with watercolour painting by simplifying shapes and colours. We’ll also look at colour mixing and using wet-on-wet technique to make the fruits three-dimensional. And finally, the class will have a focus on composition for the final project, looking at how to place the different elements for a coherent pattern.

Watercolour fruits in this class

We’ll be painting:

Cherries
Apples and apple slices
Strawberries and halves
Raspberries and blackberries
Blueberries
Lemons and limes
Oranges and segments

For the final project, we’ll combine all of these into a summer scatter pattern, adding elements throughout the page as we paint. We’ll focus on colour, composition and add final details that bring the piece together.

Paint along with me in real time as I talk you through my creative process and how I create compositions. This class is a beginner to intermediate level for anyone who wants to get creative, loose and expressive with watercolour.

If you’re looking for very-beginner classes, my loose florals class is a good place to learn basic brushstrokes.

Let’s get painting!
