Do you wish your acrylic paints weren’t so flat? In this class I will share each step of my process to create chunky, textured floral paintings by combining acrylic paint and one transformational ingredient— flexible modeling paste. I’ve painted over 1200 similar textured paintings and shipped them worldwide.

We’ll paint a beautiful potted geranium, full of sculpted petals using a daub technique. There is no need to paint perfect petals here!

What you’ll Learn:

The best supplies to use for this project.
How to gather inspiration, create a balanced composition, and combine colors.
How to draw simple geranium plant and pot shapes.
How to transform your flat acrylic paint into a thick, impasto medium.
Painting techniques to create a beautiful finished piece of canvas art.

Who is this class for:

New artists who want to learn a beginner-friendly painting technique.
Artists who might want a fresh idea and a new way to paint. One of my favorite ways to break through a creative block is to take a new class.
Advanced artists can create a beautiful piece that is as detailed and elaborate as they would like, while still using my process to create dimension and texture.

I made a downloadable workbook for you to use along with the class. This includes:

a supply list
composition ideas
how to draw plant and pot shapes step-by-step
a color picking tool.

The password to access this workbook can be found at the beginning of the Class Resources lesson. I’ll also show you several example projects to get your creativity in motion.

To take this class you’ll need a canvas (any size), a sketching pencil, acrylic paint, paint brushes, flexible modeling paste, and perhaps some varnish. I will share my favorite choices of these and explain each supply in the class.

You’ll finish the class with a lovely painting that you are proud of! You’ll also have the supplies and skills to make more beautiful textured paintings in your own style. Please keep in touch by following me on Instagram or joining my monthly newsletter.
