Poppies on Watercolor and Floral Compositions

After introducing the materials, I will explain the compositions in flowers. We will explore ten types of flower compositions. I make a sketch before practicing with watercolors in small formats.

Now that we have explored different flower compositions, let's focus on rendering two popular flowers in watercolor:One with delicate poppies with a sky background. In this exercise I will demonstrate how to work wet on dry, how to choose the focal point, how to blend colors and how to use complementary colors for maximum impact. The second painting is a classic rose flower, where I start by creating a blend and a soft background.

This exercise is very interesting to understand how to work with negatives and how to use complementary colors, warm or cool colors. Through understanding various flower compositions and practicing watercolor techniques, artists can improve their skills and appreciate botanical art. Whether capturing the delicate elegance of flowers or the boldness of poppies, each painting becomes a testimony to the beauty of nature.

So gather your materials, embrace your creativity and bring your floral visions to life. Let's immerse ourselves in the beauty of nature and bring these flowers to life on paper. See you online.
