A Five-Week Painting Series for Beginners
Learn step by step how to create your own expressive floral garden from start to finish.
Over five live online classes, I’ll guide you through colour mixing, building layers, expressive brushwork, flowers, grasses, composition, movement, and finishing touches. Each three-hour session includes guided demonstrations, plenty of time to paint alongside me, and a short break.
This is not a technical painting class. My approach is intuitive and expressive, with an emphasis on experimenting, trusting your instincts, and learning to respond to what is happening on your canvas rather than trying to get everything “right.”
A list of Materials will be emailed to you ahead of time.
How the five weeks unfold
Week 1 — Getting Started
Materials, colour mixing, brush play, and the first layers of your garden. We’ll begin by establishing the background and building our first layers of grass.
Week 2 — Building the Garden
Grass, brushwork, shape, movement, and your first expressive flower!
Week 3 — Developing the Painting
Layers, flowers, colour, contrast, and composition. We’ll continue building the garden while exploring how to create energy, movement, and visual interest.
Week 4 — Wildflowers in Bloom
Developing your flowers through colour, marks, texture, and expressive brushwork.
Week 5 — Finishing Touches
Refining your painting, adding those final marks, and learning when to stop.
If you miss a class, don't worry. I’ll send you a recap and guidance for continuing your painting between sessions, so you can stay connected to the process and join us again the following week.
You’ll finish the five weeks with your own expressive floral garden — and, hopefully, a little more confidence in your ability to trust yourself as a painter. Book your spot below. A materials list will be mailed to you upon registration. I look forward to painting with you.

A One-Day Live Online Painting Workshop
Learn step by step how to create an expressive poppy painting from start to finish. We’ll explore colour mixing, brushwork, layering, composition, and expressive marks while you develop your own interpretation of a poppy garden.
In this three-hour live online workshop, I’ll guide you step by step through the creation of your own expressive poppy painting.
We’ll explore the foundations of expressive mark-making, play with colour through swatching and mixing, and learn how to use brushes to create grasses, flowers, layers, texture, movement, and energy. We’ll also explore simple principles of composition and how to build a painting from its first background layers through to the final marks.
This is an intuitive, hands-on approach to painting. You’ll learn the process, but you’ll also have plenty of room to make your own choices and develop a painting that feels like yours.
No previous painting experience is needed. Come ready to experiment, play with colour, and discover what happens when you trust your own creative instincts. A materials list will be mailed to you after registration.
