| I started with the leaves. Wet each side and drop in color - green (indigo and aureolin) and a bit of red (perm. alizarin) plus yellow (aureolin) down the middle. Later, after it was dry, I went back on a few and started adding darks to add form to the leaves. One leaf on the left has salt which can be added for texture. For the flower I first painted a very light permanent alizarin. After it was dry I went back and started adding dark values (with alizarin and a mixture of alizarin and green to darken the alizarin) |
