Learn how to paint a realistic Hellebore in watercolor, step by step.

In this class, I’ll guide you through the entire process - from planning and color mixing to building depth with layers and adding delicate final details. Together, we’ll create a rich, detailed botanical painting full of soft transitions, deep tones, and beautiful textures.

What You’ll Learn

Who This Class Is For

This class is ideal for intermediate and advanced watercolor artists, but confident beginners are very welcome if you’re ready for a challenge.

This is a slower, more detailed project designed to help you improve your skills and enjoy the process.

Take your time, trust the layers, and enjoy painting your Hellebore!
