Lose your fear of mixing
How will you enjoy creating botanical art if you struggle with colour mixing?
Working with a limited range of pigments and a simple system gives a solid foundation.
Gain colour confidence...YES even with mixing greens!
Watch videos and work through exercises in your own home without the pressure of the classroom.
This course is an ideal follow-on to 'First Steps'. Also ideal for more experienced artists who now want to streamline their approach to mixing.
What is the structure?
This course is designed to cover not just the 'how to'... but also 'why' and 'when' of colour mixing for botanical art.
Short streamed videos will show me demonstrating colour mixing techniques. Exercises (not just colour mixing charts) will allow you to try them, at your own pace, until you gain confidence.
Confidently mix and use a wide range of greens, browns, shadows and more.
