New Skillshare watercolour leaves class!

Hi everyone! It's the long-awaited counterpart to my loose florals class - here's a watercolour leaves Masterclass.

We'll start with colour mixing for greens and then look at brush strokes to create any type of leaf shape, with some drills to warm up and a series of strokes to build different leaf types:

Simple stroke
Long stroke
Split stroke
Zig zag stroke

Then we'll be adding details and interest with wet on dry and wet on wet effects, and building out stems and branches, with my top tips for composition.

We'll put together everything you've learned into two final projects:

A leaf scatter pattern
A leafy wreath

Plus I've added a bonus lesson to show you how I create my loose, whimsical leaves too!

Watch the class here

Happy painting!
