Spring is a magical time of year when nature awakens from its winter slumber and bursts into life. The sight of blooming flowers, budding trees, and bright green foliage can evoke feelings of joy, hope, and renewal and are all signs of the beauty and vitality of this season.

In this class, we'll be using watercolors to capture the vibrancy and emotion of spring in our paintings. We'll explore a range of spring landscapes, from serene meadows to peaceful gardens, and learn techniques for creating dynamic, expressive and colorful watercolor paintings.

As we paint, we'll also reflect on the ways in which spring can inspire us and spark creativity. By playing with color, light, and composition, we'll capture the essence of this beautiful season and channel its energy into our artwork. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced painter, this class will help you tap into your own creativity and express the joy and vibrancy of spring in your paintings.

By the end of the class, you'll have created a stunning collection of 15 watercolor paintings that celebrate the beauty and joy of spring.

I am inviting you all to join me on 15 day journey of painting spring flowers and landscapes with watercolours to relax and elevate your mood :) The class will run for 30 days which means you will have 2 days to paint each painting as it will be uploaded every alternate day.
