Part 1 : Exploring basic techniques
To begin, you will explore the many creative possibilities of brushes in different sizes. Round, pointed, square or angled: each one allows for the creation of delicately shaped leaves and petals. You will also experiment with transparency and colour diffusion effects on wet surfaces.

Time to get creative!
In this second part, you will put into practice all the techniques you have learned by making a beautiful, flowered wreath. You will have the opportunity to ask questions throughout the workshop.
