Mini Class: Painting an Expressive Areca Palm in Watercolor

nice Carmen!  great to see you are still painting!

Thanks Melinda - Always a novice but I still love it. Glad to see you.

Beautiful Carmen. I really like the colours you have chosen :)

Hi Carmen! I love how you embraced the expressive, loose style for your Areca palm - those turquoise and lime green bleeds create such beautiful, spontaneous effects! The splatter details add playful energy to the piece, and your brushwork really captures the graceful movement of palm fronds. Great job and thank you so much for submitting a review and a class project!

A 3 min painting. Some bleeds but is abstract. Good test to try out different brushes.
