This week Stacy has us painting
grape hyacinths (also known as Muscari)
See video below.
I masked my edges and mixed my colors and followed the artist prompts. I found it a bit challenging getting the right pigment to water ratio to get the look of the distant flowers and timing for adding the water to the flower heads was tricky to judge. I enjoyed trying it with all the lovely purples and pinks, and adding the leafy greens.
If you give it a try share your work with us.
