If you have ever wanted to learn how to paint a peony, you will love this video lesson. Louise shows you step-by-step the process for painting a pretty pink Peony on a sticking burgundy background.

In this video lesson you will learn how to:

• pour paint onto wet watercolor paper to create a dramatic background
• use masking fluid to create highlights in the flower petals
• create curved petals with shadows
• paint leaves with veins

When you have finished this 1-hour 49-minute class you will have an amazing painting to hang on your wall, to give as a gift, or to sell.

What can I expect in this video lesson?

Louise's calm teaching style will allow you to relax and enjoy your painting journey. She'll share over 50 years of painting experience with you giving detailed explanations of each step of the painting process.

Louise paints at a pace that is easy to follow so you can paint right along with her. She'll show you how to paint every detail of this painting including every petal and leaf. You can start and stop the video as often as needed, rewinding and fast-forwarding as need.

All of Louise's paintings can be created using either watercolors or acrylics and she'll share tips for painting with both.
