INSTRUCTIONS AND SUPPLY LIST
We will be painting white petunias and a loose, simple background for the workshop. I have included a photograph we will be painting from. Please transfer (however you prefer) the photo to a 9”x12” watercolor paper prior to the workshop using only main lines of the flowers and petals. Please do NOT do a detailed drawing! Please attach your prepared watercolor paper to either a watercolor board, wood, or other hard surface prior to this workshop. And be ready to paint and have fun!
You will need masking fluid, old brush or embossing tool for masking fluid application, various brushes, rubber cement pick up for removing masking fluid, your palette w/paint, spray water bottle, water container, paper towels/tissues, 9”x12” watercolor paper, and hard surface to attach your paper to.

Please Note: These are my normal preferred supplies I always use. It is not necessary to have the exact colors I use. I recommend professional grade paper and colors for optimal results. I do not recommend student grade materials as they will not give you the same quality results.
