Love the vibrancy and variety of flowers? Come learn to paint them so you can enjoy them all year long! Each day we'll start with a warm-up to practice techniques, get inspired by master artists with a variety of painting styles, and jump into painting a different flower-based painting. We will paint zoomed-in, single flowers like Georgia O'Keeffe, as well as still-life bouquets and garden scenes.
You can bring your own photo inspiration or use the example Alisha paints from during her demo. Alisha uses her nearly 20 years experience painting to enthusiastically teach and offer constructive advice while encouraging everyone to develop their own creative voice. All experience levels are welcome.

MATERIALS
Please bring any watercolor supplies you already have. Alisha doesn't require that you have the same brand or exact paint colors, but does recommend high-quality paints and paper. Here are some suggestions:
-140lb watercolor paper. Arches is my favorite, and at least an 8x10 (or larger) block is really convenient for class. Also bring a small pad of inexpensive paper (something like the 6" x 9" Strathmore vision watercolor pad).
-Watercolor brushes - at least a large (size 10) and a small round brush (size 2). A liner and scrub brush are also very helpful.
-Watercolor paints - You can buy a set or individual tubes. You'll definitely want the primary colors (like Permanent or Pyrrole Red, Hansa Yellow, Ultramarine or Cobalt Blue), and it's nice to have secondary ones as well (Pyrrole or Permanent Orange, Permanent and Sap Green, Imperial Purple). Other colors I like are Shadow Violet, Yellow Ochre, Burnt Sienna and Burnt Umber. You do not need white or black.
-Watercolor palette with a lid and wells for mixing - Alisha will happily help you set up your watercolor palette (and show you what else you need) on the first day.
-Water cup
-Towel or paper towels
-Pencil
-Kneaded eraser
