EXPRESSIVE FLOWERS IN WATERCOLOR WORKSHOP

October 17, 2026 10:00 AM - 3:30 PM (EDT)

Description

Lisa Miceli 

The focus of this workshop is on conveying floral forms through loose, expressive approaches to paint application. Students will learn to simplify the elements of flowers and create the transparency of petals using wet-into-wet watercolor methods, with attention to color, values, and a pleasing composition. Participants can experiment with drawing flower forms using a brush, a pencil, or acrylic inks, and washes may be applied over wet or dry ink to create interesting effects.

The workshop uses photos, still life setups, and imagination to explore different ways to convey the color and beauty of flowers. Designed for any level of student, no prior art training is required.
