In this class, I will show you how to paint beautiful and colorful butterflies using watercolors. I've explained a lot of fun and easy ways of painting butterflies. This class is perfect for anyone who likes to begin his/her journey in watercolor and also for those who know the basics but want to experiment more. Watercolor might seem challenging, especially for those who come from other mediums like acrylics and oils. But, it just takes a little bit of practice and proper materials. That's it!
In the class,
- I start off with the supplies you'll need and I'll explain what kind of paper and paints are good for beginners.
- Then I'll be teaching you how to draw the butterflies from scratch.
- After that, we will do a quick and fun project using wet in wet technique.
- At last, I will be teaching you to paint two realistic and magical butterflies.
When you're done watching the class, you'll be able to able to paint your own colorful butterflies. This is absolutely a fun and relaxing class!
