Designing Luminous Floral Landscapes

Discover how to add drama, atmosphere and depth to your Watercolor Landscapes

Weave together fields of flowers into your watercolor landscapes as you move through
the design process—from composition to color harmony to the role of light. You’ll
explore how captivating color relationships and light bring depth, atmosphere and
connection across the painting. Flowers and Architecture are optional – introduce what
you want to create design elements within the story. Complete one or more paintings
that celebrate your own style and are visually engaging.
