This Holiday Card workshop will focus on using dry brush watercolor to replicate the colors and the form of the Season's Flora. We will work with seasonal plants such as poinsettias, ivy, or laurel.  Dry brush is a watercolor painting technique used in traditional botanical illustration. The method involves a "skin" of dried paint on the palette and a small, slightly damp brush. Techniques to be covered: color mixing and layering, working from light to dark, adding fine detail, using a dry brush.
