Do you love the look of loose, expressive line and wash flowers but feel unsure about where to begin?

In this class, I’ll guide you step-by-step through the process of creating beautiful floral illustrations using ink and watercolor, even if you’re just starting out.

This course is designed for beginners who want to build a strong foundation in drawing and watercolor, as well as intermediate artists who are ready to explore the line and wash technique in a more intentional, structured way.

By the end of the class, you’ll be able to confidently draw flowers from reference and create your own light, fresh line and wash pieces from scratch.
