| First I painted a light wash of the background color to reestablish my subject matter (it was hard to see). They I mixed an orange and started painting the mushroom. I started painting the gills. I painted some of the lines and then messed then up a bit in a few places so they would not look too uniform.I painted some orange in the background to help ground the mushroom. I also grounded it by darkening the base a little. This is at the very beginning. It needs more darks and details. |
