Digital Gouache Foundations: Paint Layered Still Lifes on a Tablet

Work through the core gouache moves — blocking flat shapes, mixing muted tints, and softening edges with a dry brush. You will finish a guided still-life study that sharpens composition, value control, and the small finishing marks that make a painting feel handmade.

Loose Ink & Wash: Build Expressive Plant Studies

Explore botanical painting by drawing petals and stems as simple gestures first, then layering thin washes over them. You will practise brush pressure, wet-into-wet bleeds, and restrained detailing so each study keeps its looseness instead of tightening up.

Finishing Work: Scan, Colour-Match and Print Your Paintings

Take a finished study off the canvas and into the world. Set up an even scan, correct the cast that flatbed lighting adds, and proof a small print run so the paper texture and the muted greens survive the trip from screen to shelf.
