Will I learn watercolor technique for large or small watercolor paintings?

Both!

The tutorials clearly demonstrate how to use the colors and correct brush strokes to create each individual botanical image.

You can then combine the watercolor techniques from each section to create a large garden scene with multiple elements, if you’d like.

Or you can use the instruction book to paint an individual plant or flower as a stand alone piece of art.

How will I know what colors to use?

An illustrated color palette is included for each chapter, so you will know which ones to use as you start a new botanical painting.

She then describes in detail how to mix and use the colors.

You will learn how to blend, shade and create color gradients.

What type of materials are needed to paint a watercolor botanical garden?

First, you’ll need to pick up this book to have access to all of the how to lessons and tutorials.

As with any creative hobby, you can eventually end up with a whole lot of fun supplies.

When you are making a watercolor painting, there are three main things that you need.

Who would like to receive this as a birthday or holiday gift?

The Watercolor Botanical Garden book is a great gift for creative people who like art, nature and botanical gardens.
