Botanical Beauty is a self-paced recorded video and PDF class where we will play and explore the gorgeous botanical forms that are possible with a bamboo brush and ink.

You will respectfully gather some natural inspiration, and then together we will explore leaves, stems, fronds, seed pods, petals, and all sorts of botanical forms to create beautiful, inky botanical paintings.

Is this class suitable for a beginner?
Absolutely! I will lead you through step by step from gathering  your supplies to step by step instructions to make each technique your own.
Should I take this class if I am an experienced artist?

This class is most suitable for beginner and intermediate artists.

Is this class art therapy?
This class is not art therapy. However, I am a board certified art therapist, and I use my understanding of psychology, mindfulness, and the artistic process to help students tune joyfully into the moment and engage in their art practice in deeper ways. We will not use this class to address your mental health concerns, but engaging in a mindful art practice, like any mindfulness or art practice, may have positive benefits for your overall sense of well-being.
Can I give this class as a gift?

As of right now, we do not offer this option but we hope to in the future!

What are the supplies for this class?

I provide a list and links for your supplies in the class PDF. I purposefully keep the supply list simple. You will need a #6 bamboo brush, India ink, a pad of watercolor paper, and jars for holding ink and water and a towel for blotting. A full supply list with links is included in your class PDF.
