Diving into the life and style of Beatrix Potter, you will learn the traditional and whimsical method of watercolor through illustration. In this course, you will gain various brush techniques as well as knowledge in mixing and harmonizing colors and learning about paper absorption. You will develop softer drawing skills with pencil and ink, applying these skills in creating beautiful landscapes and charming characters.
