I used white gouache for the areoles dots and the lifting technique in some of the cladodes.

This is the one that I like the most.

For this Cactus I experimented using gouache as watercolors. I also used gouache for the white details in the pot and the yellow spines.

 

I realize I felt a little uneasy with the idea of not having a pencil sketch in my paper, and not knowing the result, but at the end I liked it.

 

I enjoyed the class, I had so much fun, I've learned a lot!!! 

This class made me go out of my comfort zone. Thank you so much for the great time.
