This is a very cool class, with easy doodling techniques Jess Park teaches how to make flowers and leaves, then they turn into a wreath. It is good to refer to her hand lettering class to work on the sentiments that can be added.

Beautiful projects with such helpful demonstrations and instructions. Jess Park was a patient and talented artist. She gave great tips on watercolor techniques and calligraphy. She is so good at watercolor, her voice is so calming, and her easy manner is so pleasant that it really enhances the experience! I have learned so many new techniques from her, have and enjoyed Jess's precision lettering, creative ideas and watercolor techniques. I love the projects and especially the way she shares her skills and love for what she is teaching. She explains her techniques very well and her work is beautiful! Jess Park taught me several things about watercolor that I did not know. I am really excited about the future watercolor paintings I will be doing, because it is my favorite type of art, and I know I will use a lot of the skills I learned in this project. Thank you, Jess!
