We’ll start with a look at colour mixing, to discover how to create rich greens, and then paint all the Christmas botanical elements individually including:
- Fir branches
- Ivy leaves
- Holly and berries
- Poinsettia plants
We’ll go through each element in real time as I talk you through my process, with camera close-ups so you can see exactly how to create the pieces.
The final project
Finally, we’ll combine these individual elements into a stylish festive watecolor wreath in reds and greens. Paint along with me in real time to create a lush, full wreath as I take you through my tips for composition in wreath watercolour paintings.
