Project Guide
Pick your favorite silhouette from the internet and print it out. I am attaching the popsicle silhouette file to the project and resources section. You can download it to your preferred device and print it right away. You don’t have to edit this downloaded file. Incase you are trying this class with a different silhouette outline, then do check the video on “Printing your silhouette” before printing your file.
Once you have printed your selected silhouette, you can start sketching the floral elements within the silhouette. You will then trace it to your final watercolor paper or sketchbook and paint them using gouache or a medium of your choice. I am super excited to see what you create!
