The flower that is featured in this video strikes a curious “wow” factor through its subtle yellows and strong shadows. Your painting techniques will grow as you work your way through mixing color and discovering how to use the paintbrush to its fullest potential. Create contrast through a rich background and airy subject, and lift and layer your colors for a visually active piece. Julie Gilbert Pollard’s instruction is easy-to-follow and you will be left with a beautiful oil painting.
