“This user-friendly class is packed with helpful content for artists at any stage in their development. I enjoyed the accessibility and the well-organized format, which makes it easy to take the class on my own time-frame.” - Melissa S.

In our Intro To Floral Illustration class, you’ll learn how to create beautiful flowers and foliage from real-life inspiration. After taking this class, you’ll finally be able to draw some of your favorite florals that you can use to jazz up planners, doodle like a rockstar, make as a gift, embellish a hand-lettered design, and so much more!

You instructor, Peggy, will give you a basic overview of how to draw plants and flowers. You’ll then learn how to add color using colored pencils and brush pens to bring them to life on paper. After you’ve got the skills down, Peggy will finish the course by walking you through your final project: A floral wreath with an inspirational quote inside!

AFTER TAKING THIS CLASS, YOU’LL KNOW HOW TO:

  • Take real-life botanicals and outline them as a flat illustration on paper.
  • Draw a beautiful floral wreath illustration around your hand lettering designs.
  • Use colored pencils and brush pens to add a pop of color to your botanicals.
  • Blend colors to add a watercolor effect into your design using brush pens.

  • Great place to start on illustrating!

    This is my first course with b+c...I loved Peggy’s approach and the step by step sections, plus a project. I can see how to apply these techniques and expand beyond the project...you can easily use this to make beautiful cards, etc. I also loved learning about the water based brush colors - hadn’t seen that before. It was nice to learn about that but also have the basic option of using colored pencils. Easy and fun!

  • Flower power!

    This course was easy to follow and a super relaxing way to spend an hour. Highly recommend to anyone who wants to step up their flower drawing game.

  • Enjoyed it

    Takes a deep dive into floral illustration while still keeping it easy to follow along, great class
