What You’ll Experience
This 3-hour hands-on workshop is designed to help you:
Paint botanicals with movement and softness
Build confidence through guided exercises
Explore expressive watercolour techniques
Let go of fear and trust your creative instincts
We’ll begin with foundational techniques and playful warm-ups to help you loosen your hand and understand how water and pigment interact. Step by step, you’ll start feeling more confident and develop your own floral style.
For our final project, you’ll create a beautiful bouquet using everything you’ve learned throughout the evening. You’ll leave with a finished piece and the skills to keep painting at home.

After registering, you’ll receive a complete supply list to bring to our class.
You’re welcome to bring any watercolour materials you already own.

I attended a watercolor workshop with Maya and loved it! I had no experience with watercolor before this. She broke down her technique by giving us many options and then we built upon our skills and created some cool landscapes. Thanks Maya for everything!
