In this class, we will explore three classic techniques - from beginner to advanced - that will help you create beautiful watercolor backgrounds: 

1. WET-IN-WET TECHNIQUE: This beginner-friendly, abstract technique allows for loose painting style and works well with any subject. You can use any color palette and will find plenty of tips and problem-solving scenarios suitable for all skill levels.
2. FLAT WASH TECHNIQUE: This controlled and traditional method involves slow wet-on-dry layers to achieve a "flat" opaque look. It works great with one or several colors, and is particularly stunning for portraits, still life, and decorative botanical compositions.
3. NEGATIVE PAINTING TECHNIQUE: This advanced technique creates striking atmospheric effects in any painting. It is especially beneficial for botanical artists and has been my personal favorite background style for years. I also have an in-depth class on SkillShare dedicated to Negative Painting for botanical artists. However, this class specifically focuses on applying Negative Painting to backgrounds, allowing you to refresh what you've learned and explore new scenarios.
