Botanical Whimsy Watercolor and Ink Painting | Heather Mattioni, instructor

Let your creativity bloom in this expressive botanical art class that blends loose watercolor washes with bold black ink linework. You'll start by creating soft, layered backgrounds in vibrant earth and sky tones, then bring floral forms to life with flowing lines and intricate patterns.

What We’ll Explore:

• How to design stylized flowers and leaves with simple black ink pens
• Using patterns, line variation and dots to create visual interest
• Layering and composition to balance playfulness and detail

This project is perfect for artists who enjoy intuitive painting with a structured finish. Each piece becomes a one-of-a-kind floral story—elegant, bold, and joyfully wild.
