Fauna... oops I mean Flora

I really struggled with how to capture the white blossoms in waterCOLOURS (or should i be saying colors now...) so I much prefer the grey drawings, it's always fun experimenting though.

  6. Maybe with the white blossoms try using frisket to block them out, and then paint a dark background behind them - it may help the subtleties of the color really 'pop' Otherwise, sometimes I will put a white index card behind them to really isolate the colors present in them. Hope that helps! They look lovely!
