In my last post I ended up making a marker bouquet.
This was my first attempt at drawing a bouquet, and afterwards I really got an urge to repeat it.
It just felt extremely calming drawing the petals and flowerheads, and giving them some colour.
This time I wanted to use an approach I’ve seen used by Patty Anne at Patty Anne – Art, which has ended up with some terrific results.
I started with painting on some flower and leaf shapes on the paper, and then drew around them with a fine liner afterwards.
So basically the opposite of what I would have done before I saw this technique.
So this was the painting:
And this ended up as the finished result:
Still some way to go, but I think it ended up decent-looking 🙂
On to the next!
Beautiful work, Kim. I like how the outline adds new shape to the watercolour forms. They are both great. And, I agree that flowers are very calming! 🙂
Thank you!😃 It was a very relaxing time, so I’ll be doing more like this when I’m feeling the stress ☺
Some parts of it, yes 😉
Love this ❤️
Thank you, Elaine ☺ I’m happy with the way some of the flowers turned out ☺
Yay 😁 you are happy with your work. 😉
Looks great! 🌺
Thanks for mentioning me in your post, that was very nice. 💚😊
You’re very welcome!☺ It was a try, but there’s still a long way to go 😉
