| Now that you have successfully painted the leaves with
"Under painting" and "Over painting" and lifting- we
are now ready to paint the Morning Glories.
YUM, this is where you can use the delicious colors and make it glow!
We want to keep a consistency of color throughout the flowers, because
they are all the same, but you can paint them in all sorts of different
"shades" to give the viewer a WOW! feeling.

Here are the steps up to this point!
|
| I started the little bud in the middle top first, but you can start
where ever you are comfortable. It's good to start next to a dark, so
you can judge your VALUES better.
The colors I am using on this bud, is Windsor
Violet, Blue Violet, or mix them together to create "Blue
Violet" (but it will be sedimentary) Permanent Rose, Cad. Orange,
Golden Lake and my favorite Sennilier's-my favorite- Yum Yum -Quinacridone
Purple! (a good mixing color or by itself)
I use many, many different colors. I think that's what painting is
all about, but you must be consistent with temperature and color in
where you put them. So go ahead and start to "Under paint" all
your Morning Glory's. Remember to have a nice even transition and know
what you are going to put on top of it as your "Over
painting". REMEMBER THE COMPLEMENTS. |
