Each with its own wildflower subject and composition
A watercolor class for all skill levels

What you'll make
Imagine sitting down each morning, or Sunday afternoon, or whenever you carve out that quiet pocket of time, and getting out your art supplies without pressure or a plan.
That's what 14 Days of Vintage Wildflowers is. Fourteen watercolor floral lessons, each one a complete botanical painting in a vintage-inspired style. We'll use loose brushwork, antique-feeling color palettes, the kind of compositions that look like they were painted as a part of a creative ritual.

Thank you for this awesome class! You taught me so much more than âjustâ painting watercolor vintage flowers. Over the course of the class I learned to let go time and again, to trust myself more, to start over without feeling bad about it; and, finally, I actually was content with what I made following your prompts. This has been the first time Iâve painted flowers, but Iâll definitely keep going from here.
This class is really fun. It pushed me to try new things and I love that. I'm a beginner with watercolor and I didn't feel like this class was too advanced. It got me to try new techniques and forced me to loosen up a bit and just go with the flow.
Iâm so glad I took this class! Loosening up is really hard for me, so these exercises were just right! Plenty of beautiful little bite size pieces that help you learn to loosen your grip and go with the flow. The muted âvintageâ color palettes are lovely and it was fun to experiment with my own paints to create these tones. Peggy does a wonderful job demonstrating her technique making it easy to follow along. Her fun personality shines throughout the class. Highly recommend!
Wow...just wow! I'm absolutely blown away by Peggy Dean! I love the earthy vintage style and clear instructions. This is exactly what I've been looking for.
Meet your instructor
hey I'm Peggy
I made this class because I wanted to give people a creative practice that felt more like a ritual than a to-do list. Something beautiful waiting for you every day, no planning required, with a vintage aesthetic that makes the finished paintings feel genuinely special.
Join me for fourteen days, fourteen paintings, and a whole lot of loose, happy brushwork along the way.
This class is perfect for you if...
- You want a daily creative practice but need someone to hand you the prompt
- You've been meaning to try watercolor and want a low-stakes, beautiful place to start
- You already paint and love the idea of a vintage botanical series to work through at your own pace
- You like standalone projects over long multi-week commitments
- Loose, expressive, antique-inspired aesthetics are very much your thing
Got a question?
Do I need to know how to paint?
Nope. Each workshop teaches the techniques it uses, so you're always building as you go. That said, if you already paint, you'll find plenty to enjoy here too.
What supplies do I need?
The class includes a supplies guide, but honestly you can use whatever you have. I go over a lot of color mixing goodness so a few watercolors and a few round brushes will get you there!
How long is the class?
Each lesson is bite-sized and designed to be completed in a single sitting, so you can realistically do one a day or batch a few together on a slow Sunday.
How long will I have access?
You'll enjoy lifetime access to the course so you can learn at your own pace and revisit the content whenever you need a refresher.
I have a different question.
