How to Paint Transparent Watercolour Flowers - Olga Koelsch

From artist, pattern designer and YouTuber Olga Koelsch, How to Paint Transparent Watercolour Flowers is a hardback guide to creating delicate, see-through floral paintings in watercolour. Olga’s debut book blends the accuracy of botanical illustration with the expression and freedom of modern watercolour, making it a considered choice for beginners and experienced artists alike.

You’ll start with a concise introduction to the key essentials for getting started, alongside Olga’s most-used watercolour methods. From there, the book leads you through 6 plant projects: magnolia, eucalyptus, bellflower, rose, peony and iris. Each project is supported by clear photography and step-by-step instructions, with traceable outlines provided at the back of the book for extra guidance. To help you take your finished artwork further, Olga also shares a collection of her own examples, including ideas such as cards, wall art and fabrics.
