A studio service

Petals, wet into wet.

Flowers are the subject watercolor was made for, and the one most beginners ruin — by outlining every petal and filling it in. This workbook teaches the opposite: colour dropped into a wet shape and allowed to find its own edge, white paper left alone for the light, and stems put in last with a loaded brush.

Loose watercolor study of roses and wildflowers painted wet into wet

N° 01From one bloom to a bouquet

Simple stems to full arrangements.

The progression matters here — a bouquet is not harder than a single rose, it is the same problem repeated with a plan.

01

Single blooms

Rose, tulip, poppy, daisy. One flower, one wet shape, learning to let colour travel where it wants.

02

Bouquets & bunches

Arranged groups, where the lesson is negative space — painting the gaps rather than the flowers.

03

Botanical studies

Slower, more exact plates with leaf structure and stem detail, in the tradition of botanical illustration.

N° 02How a workbook works

Not a coloring book. A lesson you paint.

Every floral exercise arrives in three parts, so you are never staring at a blank page wondering where to start.

01

The finished painting

You see where you are going before you start — the completed piece, printed at full size, so you can match value and edge as you work.

02

The washes, in order

The same painting broken into its stages: first wash, second wash, detail. You paint one layer, let it dry, and turn the page.

03

A base to paint on

A light printed guide on the facing page. Paint straight onto it, or use it as a drawing reference on your own paper.

N° 03Made to be painted on

Laid out for wet media.

Every page is single-sided, so water never buckles the exercise on the back. Margins are wide enough to tape down, the printed guide lines are pale enough to vanish under a wash, and the whole file is 300 DPI so a home printer gives you a usable surface. Print on any 200gsm+ cold-press and it behaves like a proper block.

N° 05Questions

The answers we give most often.

Do I need to be able to draw flowers first?
No. Every exercise includes a printed base you can paint directly over, so the drawing is done for you. Working over it is also how the drawing eventually gets learned.
Which flowers are covered?
Roses, tulips, poppies, daisies, wildflowers, and mixed bouquets, plus more exact botanical plates with leaf and stem structure. The Complete set covers the full range.
Is this the same as your floral coloring pages?
No. The coloring pages are outlines to fill in. This is a workbook — a finished reference painting, the washes in order, and a base to paint over, so you learn to paint the flower rather than colour it.
What do the packs cost?
$9.99 for the 10-exercise Starter, $19.99 for the 30-exercise Workbook, and $39.99 for the Complete set with 60+ exercises and a commercial licence for KDP and Etsy.
