Watercolor with Me: Cheery Cherry Blossom Tree

Hi, I’m Jessica Sanders, a self-taught watercolor and mixed-media artist who loves exploring art and sharing it with you!

Watercolor with Me: Cheery Cherry Blossom Tree

Let’s paint a cheery cherry blossom tree together!!

In this class for any level student, I will demonstrate, in real time, how to paint a wonderful, whimsical, cheery cherry blossom tree with watercolor and white gouache. This class is not a realistic class. The approach is loose, impressionistic, and whimsical.

I will walk you through the entire process - from a quick, loose sketch to creating a painting with depth and interest - and all the steps in between.

Most of all, our focus is on relaxing, staying loose, and enjoying the painting process.

And…..Secretly, almost like magic, we will improve our watercolor skills!

We will be practicing:

• Wet on dry

• Wet on wet

• Color mixing

• Negative shape painting

• Layering washes

• Adding gouche to increase the opacity of our paint

• Staying loose

• and so much more. :)

As always, we will wrap up the class with a project using the skills and techniques we have learned in the class.

Relax and paint a cheerful cherry tree in a loose impressionism style with watercolor and gouache.
