Share your work! For your class project, if you are a beginner, experiment with the Exercises and Warmups we went over! Practice painting some leaves and use the reference pic to sketch your peony by breaking down and simplifying the shape. (All levels are welcome to this.)

And if you are up for the challenge, paint along this peony with me, keeping the exercise in mind! Feel free to use the reference pic below or paint from your own picture!

Just take it step by step, layer by layer and enjoy!

When you are done, do not forget to share your process and finished results with us all! You can upload it to “Your Project” tab.

Remember creating art is not about the end result but the process and intention of making it. So just have fun! ❤️
