| I added yellow to the white petals and some darker green to the leaves and an orange grown to the middle of the flower. I added some dark to the hummingbird and then some green. I added black to the yellow bird and then yellow. I added orange to the beak and highlights on the beak, around the eye and on the eye. I shaded the petals a little with the orange brown. There is quite a lot of value work and some detail work still to be done, but the foundation is there. |

| I fixed some of the areas that would not take paint last week. I meant to mix a grey blue and a grey but made a brownish color instead (oopss). I plan to add yellow so we'll see if that will do enough to unify. I have a little more lights and darks to add. To make water and glass (and metal too) - it's all about the light and dark patterns and a combination of soft and hard edges. Study the values in the photos and try to copy as that will hopefully help you understand. |
