Hi everyone, my name is Nia and today I will show you how I paint this Colourful Sweet Summer Treat Collection! I’m so happy to share this one with you guys, because this was so much fun for me to paint and combine all the beautiful bright colours.

This painting will be done completely without reference images, and I will share with you, my full process from the supplies and colours that I will use, ideation to sketching the composition trials, colour variation, finalization of composition before painting all the elements one by one.

All this is shared with you in hope that you will gain the freedom to paint what you want, instead of feeling limited in having to follow this exact composition if you happen to have any other ideas in mind.

In this class I will be painting in detail, so it is recommended for you to have some background in watercolours especially when it comes to understanding wet on wet and wet on dry, as well as brush control. With this said though, I will give you options along the way and I will also show you some watercolor painting techniques that I will be using repeatedly for this collection.

As an example. I will be using more or less the same techniques when I’m painting the different ice cream flavours, so you get to practice the technique using different colour combination, so hopefully by the end of this class, you guys will be experts in painting your favourite ice cream flavours!

I will be dividing this class into very short lessons so you can take breaks in between and it'll be very easy to pick up where you've left off. With all this said, just to be on the safe side I would classify this painting for intermediate students, but feel free to join if you’re a brave beginner looking for a challenge, because I promise that I will take you through every step as I paint.

Before we start this class, as a disclaimer, though I will show you the painting in real time, I will still be cutting through parts when my hand is off the frame, so there’s a better progression of steps, so if you’re new to my classes, please take a look at the lessons prior to painting along, so you get an understanding of the flow of this class. And when you are ready to paint along, you can pause in between each step, so you can paint at your own time without being rushed.

If this looks like something you guys would be interested in painting along with me, come join me, and lets begin!
