Welcome to my 1-On-1 watercolor flower class!🎨

This is a perfect class for the learner who feels shy in larger classes and wants to learn watercolor techniques. Or the learner that loves to talk (especially about art) and wants undivided attention! 

Learners will need to turn on their camera so I can verify it's them (per outschool policy) then they can turn their cameras off if they wish or turn them on as needed. Their focus should be on creating and having fun! 

📆Schedule: Don't see a prescheduled time that meets your needs? Please look at the alternative schedule. You have the ability to schedule a class that matches my availability and yours! 

What is the difference between this private class and the group flower class?
In this class I am able to tailor the instruction more to where the learner is. They will also receive more time with me.  Learners will be still be given instruction about the watercolor techniques, learn how to make leaves, and roses. They will have more time to work on their project. 

As learners learn watercolor techniques and floral techniques they will also be able to ask questions about art materials and get feedback on how they can make improvements. 

***Students do NOT need to have prior experience with watercolor. ***😊👍

This class will focus on creating loose designs/illustrations of botanicals. Students will not learn how to paint botanicals in a realistic way. Instead they are encouraged to follow their imagination!

What will students learn?
-How to activate watercolors 
-How to hold brushes
-Watercolor techniques (Beginners: 4 basic techniques Advanced: Revise basic techniques and learn new ones)
-Detailed step by step on how to make leaves and roses
-We put the information together to make the flower bouquets
-I will also take your child's goals into consideration while we work together. For example a goal can be to not get muddy colors so I will talk to them a bit about color theory or show them color combinations that are more harmonious. While I strive to do this in the group class it is not possible to give students that one one one attention as I would in a private class. 


Instruction:
Learners will follow along with my live instruction. Once we go over techniques and begin our project learners can replicate exactly what I am showing them or they can choose to follow their intuition. They will be able to use their intuition to use their own color combinations if they choose or to create the botanicals in a style they feel drawn to. 

Since this is a private class I am making sure that if a student needs extra time mastering a concept that they receive it. I match the learn where they are in the learning process making sure I am answering any question. 

They will also have the opportunity to create their own designs based on what they have learned. This will strengthen students' understanding and develop their creativity. 

Final result: 
Students will have created samples of watercolor techniques as well as florals. They will have an opportunity to freely create their own florals as they wish. This exercise can be replicated and used to create gifts for family and friends for greeting cards and decorative art! 

After class: Students can continue to practice these techniques on their own, but are not required to. 

NOTE ON MATERIALS: Watercolor paper must be 140lb weight to hold the water properly. Brushes must be for watercolor student/prof level. 
I strongly encourage watercolor paint to be student/professional Sakura Pocket Set Koi 24 color set,  or any student/professional set such as Winsor & Newton Cotman Watercolor Paint Set, 10 (5ml) or 20 (5ml). Or a watercolor set with a minimum primary colors red, blue, yellow, or you can individually purchase them in tubes or pans 

***Special note: Students final result may vary from my own demonstration due to students having (or wanting to use) different colors in their projects***
