Sunrise Bouquet - Giving the Petals Shape

by Marcia Minnichhofer on 03/21/17

I finished the dark bud at the bottom and am shaping the petals of the flowers above it.  The bud has about 4 layers of paint in different colors and also darker shadows. These buds start out with vibrant colors and gradually get lighter as they open and age.  The variety of flower colors give the inflorescence (cluster of flowers) a stunning look.

Liking how it is developing too. Will be hard to decide on a background, dark or light, minimal, or detailed.

I still think colors are more accurate on larger screen.The yellow and pink are too intense on my cellphone.
