STEP BY STEP - ROSE 6


Background: When doing the background I load a light green onto my brush as well as a medium shade green. It will be the medium shade of green that will be next to the rose petal. I use stroke No. 3 - the comma stroke - to frame up around the rose.






Notice the direction of the arrows - I keep turning my plate - again using the comma stroke - to put the background around the rose.






Again the plate has been turned so that the comma stroke is coming towards me.









Notice that I haven't joined the two shades of green together - I have left a gap here and there. This is so I can introduce another shade in between. It just breaks the monotoney of using all green.




For the colour in between I have used a shade of Turquoise. Again I have used the comma stroke to do this.
