🌱 Botanical Subject(s): Colorful Fall Leaves
Workshop Description
We can’t help but admire autumn leaves as their fiery hues dance down from the trees. Learn how to capture the spirit of fall on the warmth of tan kraft paper. Use watercolor to build soft washes of color and colored pencils to add fine lines and texture. We’ll layer rich reds, oranges, yellows, and earthy greens to capture the changing colors and try out different techniques to achieve the realistic look of each leaf’s delicate details.
