Today I’m sharing about a brand-new art course from Teela over at Every Tuesday. If you’ve been craving a calm, creative escape from the constant noise of daily life–somewhere you can slow down, experiment and create just for the joy of it–you’re going to feel right at home.
This course goes over mixing rich textures, layered washes, delicate blends and playful splatters–all designed to help you create artwork that feels alive, approachable and completely your own.
There are 9 core projects to work on, each one opening up new ways to loosen up, layer with confidence and bring more movement and texture into your digital florals–with variations that encourage you to try new ideas and create without pressure.
- How to create in 3 distinct mixed media styles: graphic, soft semi-realistic and messy abstract
- A beginner-friendly way to isolate shadows and highlights with gradient maps
- How to use different tools to enhance shadows, midtones and highlights
- Strategic ‘dissolving’–how to guide the eye with detail and soften areas with intention
- Creative watercolor wash layering to build custom backgrounds that elevate your work
- Non-destructive file setups so you can revisit and revise elements with ease
- How to choose the right tools based on the look you’re aiming for
- How to apply these techniques to any subject–not just florals!
But wait…there’s more!
