Objective: To be able to use the wet on wet watercolor technique for painting a rose.
Level: Intermediate to Advanced

Relevant demos are recorded and made available to pre-registered students within 1 week of each class session. Videos will be viewable for one month from receipt.
Billy Showell will be teaching her wet in wet techniques and approach to painting roses old and new. The first stage will be painting the fresh rose. Billy will set out the stages and work live and slow for students to follow along. Students can paint all or parts of the flowers to tailor the class to their specific level. Billy will be using Saunders Waterford High White hot pressed in block form. Please use the paper you prefer but please note that she does not recommend Arches for wet in wet. Wet in wet is a process that requires preparation and practice and the results can be quick and soft, perfect for roses! Botanical Art and Illustration certificate program elective.

- Cancellation Policy:
- Contact edu@phipps.conservatory.org or 412-441-4442 ext. 3925 to cancel a class registration.
- Up to two weeks before the class (or the first class date, for a multi-session class), you may receive a full refund minus a non-refundable $10 administrative fee.

- Phipps Adult Education classes are designed for individuals 18 years of age and older. Minors are permitted to attend online classes. Parents/guardians are welcome to sit in on class, but need to sign up separately to receive their own credit.
- Phipps reserves the right to substitute instructors when necessary.
- Receiving Class Credit: For both core and elective classes, students must attend all class sessions and complete and submit all the work required to earn class credit. Class credit is important if a student is pursuing the Basic or Advanced Botanical Art and Illustration certificate. Even if a student is not sure about pursuing the certificate, it is recommended that they earn credit for each class because this is difficult to do retroactively. If a student has to miss class (e.g. health reasons or a death in the family), they must contact the instructor at their earliest convenience to see if it’s possible to still earn class credit.
- A note on recordings: The class recordings posted on Google Classroom are meant to aid students in completing their work between classes but are not a substitute for attending class. Students are required to attend all classes and are not allowed to miss class and watch the recordings for credit.
