Description
Have you ever tried “painting flowers before but ended up with
Mud
Billions of brush strokes
Stiff-looking stems or
Petals that look overworked and tired
Would you believe that painting different kinds of flowers, botanicals or foliage can be done using a combination of only 2 essential techniques?
They sure do!
Watercolors can flow and drip, blend and bleed, all of which can make painting flowers, effortless. What that means is, you apply the paint and let the water do the rest. You just need to let the water and color, paint the painting with you, and I’m here to show you how!
WHO AM I?
Hey there! Broderick here and I paint in watercolor professionally, from simple character designs to realism, to fun art, even fine art pieces hanging in Museums in Europe.
I’ve been a featured artist for a major art supply chain (Youtube: “urban sketching broderick wong”)
Social media loves my quirky watercolor pet portraits (Google: “Vancouver is awesome broderick wong”)
Placed first in live painting competitions (2016 Harmony Festival Plein Air Champion; 2018 Grand Prix Plein Air Masters Division Champion)
The Fabriano InAcquarello 2020, an international watercolor painting conference hosted in Italy, invited me to do an online painting demonstration as an international artist. (Google: “inarte fabriano 2020 brod wong”)
I’ve led live watercolor painting workshops for people who have never picked up a brush before
I’m also the creator of 3 highly popular watercolor courses here on Udemy, including the Bestseller Watercolor Painting for Beginners
WHY LEARN FROM ME?
There are watercolor painting classes out there that use up hours on soul-crushing lectures and theory before putting brush to paper and when you finally do, it’s all about repetitive drills, forgettable color chart and swatch exercises, demoralizing activities that are too mediocre or too complex, random techniques without understanding why, leaving you with so much playing, experimenting, and accidents, but still not knowing how to properly apply the knowledge in a practical way.
I’m here to show you that learning doesn’t have to be mind-numbing.
Seriously. You just need the right guidance.
1) SHORT LASER-FOCUSED LESSONS
In this course, you will start with simple activities to equip you with 2 essential flower-power techniques, taking time to apply them properly on simpler subjects first.
2) SEQUENTIAL LEARNING
Then, you will learn how to combine these techniques with the fundamentals:
Creating the illusion of volume and depth without painting every single petal
Describe dimension through subtle folds and wrinkles
Learn how to blend colors to create soft marks and exploding patterns
Create flowing lines of stems and veins using brush techniques
New lessons introduce new techniques & reinforce what you learned in previous lessons. Lessons include carefully designed activities to match the skill level. Lessons are concise but packed with only relevant information
3) PROCESS-ORIENTED VS. RESULTS-ORIENTED
My style of teaching is process-based, meaning, you will walk away with proper technique and application so you can paint your own flowers after. You will not be limited to painting just the flowers in the activities. This is why I refer to it as Flower Power Techniques, techniques you can use to paint your own projects!
4) NOT YOUR TYPICAL, TRADITIONAL COURSE
My live watercolor painting workshops have given me the opportunity to target and isolate very specific challenges about the painting process, from a learner’s point of view, and then break them down into short laser-focused lessons.I found that these challenges are multi-layered and overlapping, making it difficult to know where to begin.
This is why you may feel you’re taking 2 steps forward and 4 steps back.
My Watercolor Painting Flowers (and all my other courses) peel away those layers, then simplifies them into short focused lessons, allowing you to learn only what you need to know at that time, to get you to the next level. Succeeding lessons will have their own short, focused sessions that gradually build on top of the previous.
This course includes everything that I teach in my $260 live workshops and more!
I can’t wait to help you create your own fantastic flowers, once and floral, using color with water!
