In honor of the first day of spring, coming up quickly, FLOWERS!
Lots of people on youtube show techniques for painting delicate, transparent watercolor flower petals. The first time I ever tried this technique was following a Jay Lee tutorial on youtube. I’ve found several since then… Here is Emma Lefebvre’s video “Layered Watercolor Flowers”
This is the one I was watching a few days ago. I watched it again tonight, and made this little page of practice blossoms.
Use lots of water. and let each layer dry before applying the next.
With practice I know I can get better at this. It’s pretty relaxing, too. 🙂
