In this series of live online lessons, we will be delving into the mystery of painting flowers. Each separate lesson will be dedicated to the study, lay in and finish of a single flower. Students will watch a fully narrrated, live oil painting demonstration from Teresa, while also being able to ask questions. Reference photos will be provided, though it is also reccommended to get your own real flowers to paint from life from. You will receive personalised critiques on your classwork too as part of this class.
