Spring Series: Botanical Watercolors Inspired by Spontaneous Brush Painting

  • Little Art House 2106b Acklen Avenue Nashville, TN, 37212 United States (map)

Thursdays, April 17, 24, & May 1, 8

Join Miranda for a fun and relaxing time of painting inspired by traditional spontaneous-style Chinese brush painting.

Traditional Chinese brush painting artists seek to capture the spirit of nature. The technique encourages imagination and asks you to paint what you want to see, not what you actually see.

Students discover this technique to be a calming and mindful way to paint. Each stroke is made with intention, purpose, and love.

You will learn to paint:
Week 1: Bamboo & Air Plants
Week 2: Roses & Peonies
Week 3: Carnations & Marigolds
Week 4: Cherry Blossoms & Dogwood

You will leave with:

  • The special brush, watercolor paper pad, and watercolor palette used in class so you can continue painting at home!

  • 2–4 small paintings and a few postcards.

  • Digital handouts with step-by-step instructions.

Cost: $250 ($200 for classes and $50 for supplies)

  • New students: A one-time $50.00 supply fee is due to the instructor at the beginning of the first class. Cash, Venmo, or Zelle are accepted.

  • Returning calligraphy students: Bring your own supplies. The fee will be prorated and based on your supplies, plus the handout fee.
