White waterlily

Step-by-Step - Level

Painting white flowers is all about creating form with the shadows and reserved highlights. For this lesson our focus is on painting interesting shadows. Shadows with lots of colour variations, interesting shapes, and soft and hard edges. It's a chance to really study each petal and to paint slowly with light layers. It's a type of meditation :-)

Happy painting!
