| The sketch is done in a round format because I plan to use this painting to design a necklace, key ring, magnets, coasters and stickers. |
 |
| I like to use Liquitex Professional Acrylic Artist Color Heavy Body. The colors used here are: Titanium White, Ivory Black, Burnt Umber, Raw Sienna, Hooker's Green, Sap Green, Light Blue Permanent and Cadmiun Yellow . |
 |
| I'm using 2 8x10 inch canvas panels. One for the painting and another to lay my paints out on (this will become a painting of it's own later, I'm building a textured surface at this point) Place a small dab of blue and a small dab of white on the blank canvas panel but do NOT mix them there. I prefer to use a #8 flat or round brush and pick up a bit of each color which I tap lightly and make small cross strokes on the painting which blend them some but produces a mottled, cloud like background. |
 |
| I had some extra white left on my other board so I began using that with the yellow and raw sienna to make the flower petals more prominent. |
 |
| now comes the fun part!!! Any extra paint on the other board gets spread out and worked with a pallet knife which of course is where some of the wild backgrounds for my other work start. There's lots more to go on this painting but I'll take a break here. |
