Master botanical watercolor through three skill levels
Layflat spiral binding lets you keep both hands on your brush while following step-by-step instructions, no fighting to hold pages open mid-wash. Sarah Simon structures each botanical lesson across three skill levels, so you work with eucalyptus wreaths, olive branches, and tropical leaves at whatever complexity matches your current abilities. Over 100 traceable designs eliminate drawing anxiety; you focus on watercolor techniques, gouache opacity, and ink detailing rather than getting proportions right.
Clear diagrams and photographs break down each approach, from basic wet-on-wet washes through intermediate glazing to advanced layering with mixed media. The progression builds deliberately: early lessons establish fundamental brush control and color mixing, while later projects tackle fine-lined blooms and complex shading. Brief essays throughout explore why making art matters, the satisfactions, the struggles, the reasons we keep returning to the practice.
This hardcover workshop gives you 281 pages of instruction that stays open flat on your work surface. You gain practical skills with three distinct media while building a portfolio of botanical studies that reflect genuine technical growth.
