Flowers become both subject and inspiration in this creative, collaborative workshop that pairs flower arranging with watercolor painting. Together, a Native Poppy florist and a guest artist will guide you from floral design to finished artwork in one immersive experience.

This workshop begins with a guided Flower Arranging 101 experience, where you’ll design a petite floral arrangement using seasonal blooms with hands-on support from Native Poppy’s professional florists. Once your arrangement is complete, you’ll transition into a guided watercolor painting session led by Michaela Jean Art, a flower gardener and painter, learning how to translate your arrangement into a finished floral artwork using expressive watercolor techniques.

No prior painting or floral design experience required! The focus of this workshop is on exploration and creative expression, offering a relaxed, supportive environment to play with flowers, color, and paint while making something uniquely your own.

Ticket Includes:

• Comprehensive, engaging instruction of our Flower Arranging 101 curriculum, and hands-on assistance from Native Poppy’s professional florists
• Guided painting instruction from artist Michaela Jean
