There is much satisfaction to be gained from painting a beautiful, graceful flower. If you’re painting flowers, you’ll most likely paint leaves with them. Actually many flower petals or what we call petals, are really leaves and even more flower petals are painted similar to leaves. So it’s important to understand and learn to paint generic leaves and how this applies to most leaves.
In our leaf study class you learn how to use values to create a realistic appearing leaf. We’ll use acrylic paints but the theory applies to any medium. We’ll review side loading and using the flat brush for floating along with brush techniques.
I’ve painted on a 7 1/2″ x 10″ journal in DecoArt Americana Acrylics. Any paints will work and you can choose any surface that is appropriately prepared. Class instruction includes photo, worksheets, pattern, and instructions.
