Hello, this is a lesson in flower painting.
I'm posting the links on this page to make it easier.
Our Resource Picture I took this picture myself, so no problems there about using it. Big version.
This is the smaller version for those who need it.
Here is how to do a homemade light box!
And here is my contour drawing from the window.
Refined Contoured Drawing, looking at the screen with the pic on it.
Picture on computer screen, not a very good pic.
Go here to see my pictures and some (sorry) movies.
MORE TO COME!

This lesson taught me how to drop colors into
wet this is so cool!

Here's Dawnel's!
I have started a magnolia painting, using Cecilia's lesson. Attached is
where I got to today.
I printed out the photo, and some small images of the process to take
along to art class; I had already printed out the contour and traced
it. That was kinda' fun.
So as far as following along exactly as shown, that is not the case, I
was sort of winging it. It felt a bit like painting by number; I think
I have not blended sufficiently. I wonder if I am being bold or have I
covered too much up - not leaving enough whites - on the flowers. They
don't look like they wil read as white flowers....

And here is Susan's lovely finished one.
Well, I participated in Cia's magnolia demo/challenge. Mine is not like hers, but I will blame that on not being a southern lady who understands magnolias. Here on the desert we don't have such delicate blossoms! Actually, this was fun to do and I tend to approach florals with a wet-in-wet, dropping-in-
