FLORAL JOY IN WATERCOLOUR:
EMBRACE THE PLAYFUL, EXPRESSIVE PAINTER WITHIN!
Capture the essence of beautiful blooms through loose, expressive techniques that let the paint do the work.
We'll complete a variety of confidence-building projects that show you how to create volume, use bold colour combinations, and even paint those tricky white flowers without hesitation.
Skills you can use in finished paintings, filling your sketchbook, or even creating thoughtful handmade cards and gifts. 🎁
If you're ready to move beyond stiff, lifeless florals and fill your paintings (and your sketchbook) with vibrant, joyful blooms, this course is for you.

Sketchbook Success
Splash, line and colour!
That's what I call this playful twist on the line and wash technique.
Discover how to remove blank page intimidation and make sketching feel fun.
This freeing approach will have you reaching for your sketchbook again and again.
Work That Brush!
Learn to suggest the petals by letting your brush do the work rather than fussing over a detailed drawing.
I'll show you how
- a light touch and
- smart, bold colour choices
create soft, expressive blooms that feel alive and spontaneous.
Paint a Whole Series
We'll paint together, step by step to create two different paintings. Aside from the video you'll also have the line drawings and references so that you are guided all the way.
But there is no need to stop there!
Armed with these new techniques AND a library of carefully selected reference images, you'll be itching to create a whole series of your own cottage paintings.
Floral Joy in Watercolour
Painting flowers doesn't have to mean mastering botanical illustration or getting every petal perfect.
This course starts with a relaxed sketchbook project using the playful "splash, line and colour" technique - removing any blank page fear and getting you creating confidently from the start.
Next, a quick 20-minute painting where you'll discover just how much joy and life you can capture in a short burst of colour, building your confidence with forgiving shapes and expressive brushwork.
We'll also paint together step-by-step in the main project, exploring how to use colour to create exciting blooms, add dimension with smart value choices, and yes - even paint those beautiful white flowers you've been avoiding.
By the end, you'll have multiple finished paintings as well as the confidence, skills and curated reference library to keep creating your own vibrant floral series.

FAQs
What supplies do I need?
I always recommend that you use what you already have. There is no need to use exactly the same supplies or colours as I am using.
I always include details of exactly what I use in each lesson but the broad basics include:
- 300gsm cold pressed watercolour paper either loose sheets, pads or sketchbooks - whatever you like best or have to hand
- a large round watercolour brush, and possibly a rigger (although even that is very much optional)
- watercolour paints
- a sketchbook or just loose sheets of copier paper and a pencil for sketching
How long do I have access to the course materials?
If you purchase the Standalone Edition of Floral Joy in Watercolour you will have instant and ongoing access to the materials.
If you purchase the membership you will have instant access to not only the Floral Joy in Watercolour class but also to the entire growing library of Happy Painters Hub courses. Your access to all of these courses will continue for as long as you choose to pay your low monthly membership subscription.
How does the membership pricing work?
If you subscribe to the membership, you will automatically be charged on a monthly basis. The membership fee is very low at the moment because the Hub is still relatively new. Over time, more and more content will be added so it is likely that the fee will increase in future enrolment periods.
However, when the subscription fee increases, existing members will continue to pay the low fee they originally signed up for.
That means you never have to worry about the subscription fee increasing for as long as you are a continuing member.
Don’t worry - that doesn’t mean you are stuck with me forever, cancelling or changing your billing details is easy. You can do it all yourself!
How would I cancel the membership?
Just click on Your Account from your student dashboard and you can easily edit your credit card details or cancel your subscription with a couple of clicks.
