It's mushroom season! Who else is happy about this? These pretty ones are actually called 'beautiful bonnet mushrooms' - I didn't need to add in the beautiful ;-)

Painting themes from nature is really absorbing. To get the mushrooms to look natural we look really closely at all the details and subtle colour changes. Then we have fun matching those colours using what we have on our palette.

It's time to make use of all the lovely golden and brown earth tones on your palette. And I'll show you trick for getting those super fine lines on the mushroom caps.

Happy painting!
