Today I have a watercolor inspired by the flowering Dogwood tree in my yard.
Happy Thursday, friends! 💚
7 x 10 inch watercolor under painting
I started with a painting of pretty petals and leaves. No details needed at this point, that will come later with the ink sketching. The loose watercolor provides a nice base for the ink sketch.
I love that peachy pink, as I’ve said before I have a serious #colorcrush on that combination. 😉
A little sketching with a Sepia micron pen provides the needed floral detail.
I like that the fine tip Sepia doesn’t overpower this piece. I also used a white gel pen for just a few highlights here and there.
I hope you are inspired to create art and do more of what you love.
Until next time, share a smile and stay excellent!
