Luminous Cherry Blossoms

Luminous Cherry Blossoms - student project

 

Painted these using the Da Vinci Casaneo. Used a smaller mop as I thought it would hold a lot of water(Trupti recommends adding a lot of water to the paint to acquire the luminous effect), not come to a very sharp point(good to paint these flowers) and is synthetic.

Of course I need to learn how make the strokes more naturally and blend the colors more seamlessly. I should take better care to prevent the brown of the stem and the green of the leaves from mixing with the flowers. Better planning with composition would help too. 

 

Enjoyed working on a bigger sheet of paper! Never thought i would :) So that's a surprise! I also loved working with the diluted paint! 

 

I hope to put the techniques learnt in the class to good use!
